NCAA College Basketball Picks: December 8th, 2007
NCAA Basketball Picks: Seton Hall vs. Penn State
Take Penn State Nittany Lions
3* on Penn State -1.5 Seton Hall has yet to win a big road game this season. They beat Princeton and then lost at St. Mary’s. They won’t be beating this Big Ten foe on Saturday at Penn State. Seton Hall is 1-8 ATS in road games after one or more consecutive overs over the last 2 seasons. Seton Hall is 6-19 ATS after allowing 75 or more points in 2 straight games. Their poor defensive effort this season will catch up to Seton Hall Saturday. Penn State is 8-1 ATS as a home favorite or pick over the last 3 seasons. Bet Penn State at home.
NCAA Basketball Picks: Iowa vs. Iowa State
Take Iowa State Cyclones
1 Unit on Iowa State pk After an embarrassing loss to in-state rival Drake on the road, we expect the Cyclones to come roaring back at home in their biggest in-state rivalry game. Iowa is in a letdown spot after a big upset over Northern Iowa as a double digit dog. There is no chance that this young, inconsistent team will be able to duplicate that performance in Ames Saturday. Iowa is 12-27 ATS as a road underdog of 6 points or less or pick since 1997. Iowa State is 16-3 ATS as a home favorite of 3 points or less or pick since 1997. Iowa is also just 9-22 ATS in non-conference games over the last 3 seasons. Iowa State has covered the spread in 4 of its last 6 home games against the Hawks. Let’s take the Cyclones at home in this bounce back spot.
