Tuesday’s College Basketball best bets: A Michigan State ‘nightmare’ matchup

Prematurely of Tuesday’s faculty basketball slate, Anthony Dabbundo of The Motion Community is right here to share a pair of greatest bets.

The primary is available in a mid-tier Massive Ten convention matchup as Michigan State travels to face Iowa, which is a six-and-a-half-point favourite.

For Dabbundo, he believes this matchup is a “nightmare” for the Spartans.

“Iowa comes into this sport the No. 1 workforce within the nation at stopping turnovers,” Dabbundo says. “[And] Michigan State may be very reliant on transition to attain.”

With the Spartan offense exterior the top-150 in half-court offense per shot high quality and due for some adverse regression based mostly on shot high quality, Dabbundo is comfortable to put the factors with the Hawkeyes.

The second contest Dabbundo is keying in on is a Massive East convention matchup between UConn and Villanova, which is a two-point underdog.

Although the Huskies misplaced the sooner assembly this season, Dabbundo expects their inside protection to trigger issues for Villanova.

“UConn is top-10 in ending on the rim protection and a top-20 unit in opposition to ball screens,” Dabbundo mentioned.

On condition that’s how Villanova generates a number of its offense, Dabbundo believes the hosts get revenge and canopy its two-point unfold.
