YTD Best Bet: 4-2
Best Bet: Villanova -23.5 vs. DePaul
I know what you are thinking: Kyle that spread is a ton of points, there is no way this should be on your card let alone your best bet of the day. That may be true, but here’s a fact for you all that you should really be aware of: DePaul stinks. They are one of the worst basketball teams if not the worst that I have seen this season. They have lost, get this, 19 straight games, and have covered in only seven of them. To really lock in the point that DePaul stinks, of those 19 losses, 11 of them have been by 25 or more points. Okay, I am off my soapbox about how bad DePaul is, let’s talk Villanova. They have a top 20 defense this season that is allowing only 65.6 ppg and have allowed their opponents to shoot only 41.1% from the field. Their forward Eric Dixon is having a great season averaging 16.3 ppg. Betting wise the Wildcats have covered in seven of their last ten games, and they also are going to have redemption on the mind, as they have lost their last two. I am going to be honest, I would not be surprised if this final is a 30 point game because Villanova has beaten DePaul this year by 36 and 25 this year. This game is going to be an absolute rout.
