How do you know which college basketball underdogs are truly live for an upset? PRO Projections certainly help.
After nailing upsets of +300, +340 and more last week, Saturday’s best upset predictions are true big-game hunting.
Right now, our NCAAB models top three picks are all A+ picks and huge underdogs. We’re covering all three below, and you can figure out which way to attack: the spread, moneyline, or even a +11285 parlay when combining all three.
If you’re looking for longshot bets, upset picks, a spicy parlay and more, here’s a ton of insights from our data-driven college basketball numbers for 2/22.
College Basketball Parlay Picks: Saturday Upset Predictions and Odds
Games tip off from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. ET. All three picks earned the top grade (A+) from PRO Projections.
When these three premium selections are combined into a single parlay at BetMGM, the odds climb to an impressive +11285. This is striking when you consider our PRO Projections’ calculated true parlay price is +2506.
Let’s get it started.
At 4 p.m. ET, PRO Projections love George Mason vs. VCU. George Mason is a +10.5 underdog but our projection makes the line more like +6.9. The consensus moneyline stands at +455, yet we calculate a fair value of +251. It’s the third-best pick of the day.
Meanwhile, Kentucky is a live underdog vs. Alabama tonight, according to PRO data. Alabama’s laying 11.5 points on the spread, with a moneyline of +450. PRO numbers suggest +6.5 and +233, providing ample value to back the Wildcats.
Finally, our best pick of the day after the latest projection update is Dartmouth on the road vs. Princeton. Dartmouth is set at +7.5 against the spread, but our projection is +2. The moneyline listed as +270 is significantly lower than our fair estimate of +123.
