Missouri Tigers vs Arkansas Razorbacks

Time: 4:00 p.m. ET
Location: Fayetteville, AR
TV: ESPN
Pick: Arkansas (-550)

The Arkansas Razorbacks are in a bounce-back spot following a double overtime loss at Alabama on Wednesday. They’ve gone 13-1 at home this season while posting a sizzling 59.5 eFG%.

Meanwhile, the Missouri Tigers have struggled on the road, where their eFG% drops to 50.8%. The Tigers also sit outside the Top 300 in opponent 3PT% (36.2%) and will get tormented from deep. 

Alabama Crimson Tide vs LSU Tigers

Time: 6:00 p.m. ET
Location: Baton Rouge, LA
TV: SEC Network
Pick: Alabama (-310)

The Alabama Crimson Tide have struggled against teams that can match their pace and shot-making ability. However, they’ve been blowing out opponents who can’t go bucket-for-bucket with them.

The LSU Tigers are in that latter category, especially after losing leading scorer Dedan Thomas to a season-ending injury. The Tigers also have the second-worst defense in the SEC and will get lit up by a Tide attack that averages an incredible 92.4 ppg on the road.

UCF Knights vs   Utah Utes

Time: 9:00 p.m. ET
Location: Salt Lake City, UT
TV: ESPN+
Pick: UCF (-135)

The Utah Utes are coming off a win against West Virginia which snapped a seven game losing streak. The Utes have gone just 2-11 in conference play and rank 171st in the country in adjusted defense  — the third-worst rating among high-major schools.

The UCF Knights are 7-6 in Big 12 play and rank 35th in the country in adjusted offense. They picked up a 95-86 victory in Boulder last month, proving that their up-tempo style could play at elevation. 

Iowa State Cyclones vs   BYU Cougars

Time: 10:30 p.m. ET
Location: Provo, UT
TV: ESPN
Pick: Iowa State (-160)

The Iowa State Cyclones have gone 23-3 and are fresh off back-to-back wins against No. 2 Houston and No. 8 Kansas.

Meanwhile, the BYU Cougars barely beat Colorado at home and lost to Arizona following a season-ending injury to All-Big 12 guard Richie Saunders last weekend. Saunders averages 18.0 ppg and is their best 3-point shooter, top defender, and their leader. 

Depth was already an issue after sixth-man Dawson Baker tore his ACL in December and the loss of Saunders will be devastating against ranked opponents.
