Saturday’s college basketball odds board is obviously headlined by two Final Four matchups, but the NCAA Tournament isn’t the only game in town.
The College Basketball Crown’s (CBC) semifinal games also take place on Saturday. They are smartly tipping at 1:30 p.m. ET and 4 p.m. ET to lead right into the first Final Four matchup—Florida vs. Auburn—at 6:09 p.m. ET.
Sure, the Final Four is exponentially more prestigious and will clearly draw the attention of recreational bettors. Still, savvy bettors don’t pass on an opportunity for value no matter how high — or low—profile a matchup.
With this in mind, Action PRO’s college basketball projections are pinging a staggering betting model edge for Saturday’s Nebraska vs. Boise State CBC matchup (1:30 p.m. ET, FOX).

*Odds as of Saturday morning
The Broncos are 2.5-point favorites against the Cornhuskers for Saturday’s matinee.
However, it’s the over/under that’s popping off the page right now.
Here are the details.
Action PRO projects the Nebraska vs. Boise State total at 146.9, significantly lower than the latest consensus line of 154.5.

Most eyeballs will be on Saturday’s Final Four, but there’s reason for bettors to consider a play on today’s Nebraska vs. Boise State under as well.
