Top NCAAB Betting Picks of the Week – November 26th Edition

Tuesday, November 27

Michigan State at Louisville (7:30pm ET, ESPN)

Michigan State won the Las Vegas Invitational after defeating Texas, 78-68, on Friday. The win was made even more impressive by the fact that the Spartans fell behind by 19 during the first eight minutes of the game before roaring back to take a second-half lead. Joshua Langford had 29 points to lead the Spartans, and Cassius Winston scored 20 points and dished out 10 assists, winning the tournament MVP. Louisville last played in the third-place game of the NIT Season Tip-Off, where they fell in overtime by three to Marquette. Christie Cunningham led the Cardinals with 16 pints. Jordan Nwora put up 15 points and seven boards, and Steven Enoch added 10. Louisville had built a lead as large as eight before Marquette went in front for the first time with 6:42 remaining. While this game will be in Louisville instead of at a neutral site, it’s hard to see Louisville elevating their play to the level of the Spartans. NCAAB Betting Prediction: Michigan State 70, Louisville 61

Indiana at Duke (9:30pm ET, ESPN)

Indiana knocked off Texas-Arlington by 14 and then held off UC-Davis on Friday. Now the competition level increases significantly as the Hoosiers head to Duke. Against UC-Davis, Juwan Morgan put up 31 points and 10 boards and the Hoosiers mounted a rally late in regulation to pull away from them in the second half. Morgan went 13 for 18, including 5 for 7 from downtown. If the Hoosiers are to have a prayer against Duke, Morgan will have to have a monster night on offense. Duke lost their last contest, an 89-87 setback against Duke in the championship of the Maui Invitational. The contest had the feel of a Final Four affair, and Gonzaga could enter West Coast Conference play as the top team in the nation. They do have matchups with Tennessee and North Carolina before conference play opens, so critics will have no excuses about Gonzaga not having played any top teams. Indiana doesn’t have the weapons that Gonzaga has, so Duke should roll. NCAAB Betting Prediction: Duke 80, Indiana 68

Syracuse at Ohio State (7:00pm ET)

Syracuse ended a two-game losing streak by knocking off Colgate by 21 on Wednesday night. Tyus Battle put up 24 points and Oshae Brissett and Elijah Hughes each added 17. The finish of the game was crucial, as Syracuse trailed by two with 16:15 remaining in the second half but then went on a 36-13 run. The Orange went on a 36-13 run the rest of the way, going 14 for 26 in the second half and draining five of 10 shots from downtown. The Orange visit Ohio State on Wednesday, and the Buckeyes delivered an 89-62 thumping of Cleveland State on Friday night. Kaleb Wesson had 19 points, one of four Buckeyes to hit double figures in the game. C.J. Jackson scored 17 points, Andre Wesson added 11, but Ohio State struggled from downtown, going just 7 for 19. The Buckeyes have the defense to slow Syracuse down and take this win. NCAAB Betting Prediction: Ohio State 68, Syracuse 59
