🤞CBB Wednesday best bets: Don't be scared to back 3 road favorites🏀
TheGx sports betting forum copy and paste machines reporting:
We swept (3-0) our Tuesday card on a huge night in college hoops where both the No. 1 and No. 2 teams in the country lost on the road as favorites.
Let's build on our success with a less notable Wednesday slate. Here are tonight's best bets.
Florida's size poses a huge challenge for the Rebels, who lack the frontcourt depth to compete with the Gators on the glass or inside. Florida's coming off a close loss to Kentucky at home over the weekend, so it'll be on a mission to get back in the win column.
It's never fun taking road favorites in conference play. However, Florida's strengths will overwhelm Ole Miss' weaknesses en route to a relatively easy win.
Pick: Florida -2.5
After losing back-to-back games against Kansas and North Carolina in late November, Tennessee reeled off seven straight wins. The fact this line is so low against an offensively challenged but physical Mississippi State squad speaks volumes about how difficult it is to win on the road in the SEC.
The Bulldogs' physical defense could create some problems for the Volunteers' offense. Expect a low-scoring game where Tennessee pulls away late.
Pick: Tennessee -2 and under 139
Penn State is one of the Big Ten's worst teams and has the worst home atmosphere in the conference. The Bryce Jordan Center sounds like a library, and it should be even less intimidating than usual with students still on break.
Northwestern has impressive wins over Purdue and Michigan State. The Wildcats haven't replicated that success on the road, but Wednesday night is the perfect opportunity to secure their first conference road win.
Pick: Northwestern -1.5

Florida @ Ole Miss (+2.5, O/U 156.5)
It'll be some time before Chris Beard makes Ole Miss' program competitive in a deep SEC. His Year 1 roster doesn't have the talent to be considered among the conference's upper tier. That was evident when Tennessee boat-raced Ole Miss by 26 on Saturday.Florida's size poses a huge challenge for the Rebels, who lack the frontcourt depth to compete with the Gators on the glass or inside.

Tennessee @ Mississippi State (+2, O/U 139)
Tennessee is one of the best teams in the country and a legitimate national title contender. The Volunteers' trademark defense remains elite and they have enough scoring options to create a proficient offense.After losing back-to-back games against Kansas and North Carolina in late November, Tennessee reeled off seven straight wins.

Northwestern @ Penn State (+1.5, O/U 143)
