Wednesday NCAA College Basketball Selections January 18th

[Ratslla]

Very busy day for me and sorry that I was unable to post sooner! First game kicks off at 7:30 PM EST:


(3) Manhattan +2.5 -105

The Red Foxes, of Marist, have been a strong road team over the years but have been shaky at home. Marist is just 2-3 ATS at home this season and should have trouble avenging their earlier season loss. Marist is a mere 1-3 SU / ATS revenging a road loss and just 2-4 ATS against conference foes. The Jaspers, on the other hand, continue to show strength in January (18-5 SU run) and sport a 6-1 ATS mark in this series. We'll look for the Jaspers to remain the class of this conference.

Good Day & Good Luck

(3) Rutgers +2.5 -105

Rutgers has been very competitive in this series (3-1 ATS) and should be emotionally sky high for this one. The veteran Scarlet Knights' should play well in front of a jammed home arena, where they have been outstanding under head coach Waters. After nationally ranked Pitt's dynamic win over Louisville, I project a tight battle here. And with Rutgers controlling a much better FT% over Pitt, we'll look for Douby and company to deliver down the stretch!

Good Day & Good Luck!

(3) UNLV -4.5 -110

The Runnin' Rebels are 4-1 SU / ATS in this series and we'll look for them to control this game and cover. UNLV is coming off a loss at San Diego State but should show resilience under head coach Kruger. Kruger, as a Division 1A head coach sports a 17-7 ATS mark at home following a road loss. The Rebels play typical Kruger basketball on their home floor. strong on the boards, good defense and limit turnovers. Colorado State, which is coming off a win against Utah, and is currently on an 0-4 ATS slide and should fold once again here tonight.

Good Day & Good Luck

(5) Southern Cal +8 -108

The scrappy Bruins, which have been ravaged with injuries this season, are money as a dog under head coach Howland; however, as home chalk the Bruins lose their value. UCLA is a mere 3-4 ATS at home in this favorite range and should have difficulty against their cross-town rival tonight. USC, which is much more defensively sound this season under head coach Floyd, should continue to play well. The Trojans are looking to avenge last season's sweep and will bring their best game. UCLA, which won't have Mata roaming the paint, should struggle to cover this number.


Good Day & Good Luck
