KotaCapperKyle's Best Bet for Wednesday (DePaul/Marquette Under 150.5)

KotaCapperKyle's YTD Best Bets: 0-0 
 
Best Bet of the Day: Marquette-DePaul Under 150.5
 
Marquette is coming off a game where they only scored 53 points. Granted, it was against the #1 team in the country in UConn, but that still is not going to sit well with them. They are going to come out and not only try to score a lot of points but also be locked in on defense. A lot of people know Marquette for their offensive stars like Tyler Kolek and Kam Jones, but they are very solid defensively too, allowing only 68.7 ppg. Meanwhile, to say that the season has been bad for DePaul would be an understatement, winning only three games: South Dakota, Louisville, and Chicago State. They are scoring a mere 64.3 ppg, the 20th worst in CBB and only shooting 42% from the field. Marquette is going to make this be a slobernocker, but the amount of points that DePaul is going to score against this team is what is going to make this game go under. Add that to the fact that Marquette is also 9-16 to the over this season, that total seems too high. Give me Marquette-DePaul Under the 150.5.
