One of the last NCAA college hoops Stupendous Saturdays us upon us. Believe it or not, we are rapidly approaching the end of the 2024-25 regular season. It's sad to se the season fly by like this, but it also means that the Madness is right around the corner.
Buckle up for what should be a incredible six weeks of basketball as we move into postseason tournaments, Championship Week and then the Big Dance. Many teams will seal their NCAA fate in the next week or so, but it still remains to be seen who will come out of nowhere to salvage their season and ruin someone else's.
It's one of the best times of the year. Enjoy it, and let's make a few bucks along the way.
Too many games today for much in-depth analysis or a bubble watch, but we'll sum up all that tomorrow.
Today's info at the bottom of this page. As always, recommended picks and other games will be added and tweaked throughout the day so please check back.
Friendly Daily Reminder
When you read through today's information, keep in mind that we are extremely selective with our recommended picks as they need to have at least a 60-percent win probability or better according to our proprietary algorithm and also must pass through a stringent set of rules and parameters that we consider for each matchup. In our daily posts, you will find our recommended bets as well as games that don't quite make the cut to be recommended and which might make solid parlay options and other games where we believe there are edges favoring one side.
Parlays always will have a lower win probability than straight bets, but there are times that a parlay will meet our requirements and be recommended. We realize that many sports bettors prefer not to bet very short odds that approach and exceed -200, so as we strive to provide as much information and help as many people as possible, we do provide suggest parlay options that are strong bets and don't quite make the cut for us as recommended selections. We also may present other games that have betting edges but also don't quite meet our high standards to be recommended picks.
Our college basketball betting edges have performed well, hovering between 55 and 58 percent over a large sample size since early November, and our parlay options have been extremely successful as you can see below.

Parlay City
While we usually don't recommend parlays - mainly because it decreases the win probability while increasing the potential payout - for those who aren't interested in laying the juice, combining two of our money line recommended picks or pairing one of our recommended picks with other picks we think have betting edges often can be very strong plays as well. They just may not be strong enough to meet the criteria for us to recommend them, though, and are "bet at your own risk" like the other games we post that have betting edges.
Our potential money line parlay games from Jan. 4-6 were 19-1 ... they have gone 277-102 (73.1%) since Jan. 4 and were 18-2 Jan. 14-15. They were 14-1 overall Feb. 4-5 (college hoops went 12-0 those two days). On Feb. 11 they were 13-0, and for Feb. 11-13 combined they were 31-2.
