College Basketball Picks, Projections, Parlay for 3/6
Games begin at 7 p.m. ET.
First up is Tulane vs. East Carolina in the AAC.
The line is ECU -4.5, but our fair spread is ECU -0.9. Betting Tulane outright is smart, as the PRO price of +103 is significantly shorter than the +160s out there.
It’s an A+ pick on the Green Wave, per PRO models.
PRO Pick: Tulane

The second highlight of the night is Army against Colgate.
Army is a 7.5-point underdog around the market. Our spread, however, is more like Colgate -4.7.
We make Army about +180 on the moneyline. The consensus price is +275, therefore it’s a grade-A selection.
PRO Pick: Army

Next up is New Mexico State, taking on Louisiana Tech in the 7:30 p.m. ET window.
New Mexico State’s +4.5, but there’s a potential upset looming using our metrics, which forecast a fair line of just New Mexico State +1.4.
Betting on the Aggies outright is the third of four smart looks.
PRO Pick: New Mexico State
