PRO college basketball projections nailed the top spread bet Thursday, predicting a Duquesne cover vs. BYU (the Dukes won outright as nine-point underdogs). Friday’s best NCAA Tournament picks from our expert models, meanwhile, are even larger — and yes, that’s plural.
The FAU vs. Northwestern spread and moneyline prices are the two largest differences between NCAA Tournament spreads and PRO Projections of any first-round game.
After comparing odds to our lines, projections pinged with huge edges both against the spread and to win outright when the Owls meet the Wildcats Friday morning — in fact, they’re both A+ predictions.
Today’s FAU vs. Northwestern line in the betting markets resembles everything an 8 vs. 9 seed showdown should: A close matchup.
However, advanced projections rolled out a point spread nowhere close to what’s available to bet — and it’s also a green-light in the moneyline market on which team will advance to the NCAA Tournament Round of 32.
Friday’s Best NCAA Tournament Picks: Northwestern vs. Florida Atlantic Spread, Moneyline
Large betting edges exist, especially in high-leverage spots like the NCAA Tournament. Friday’s FAU vs. Northwestern line and moneyline are so off from the prices around the market, you’d think we made an error.
Nope. Everything checks out.
Projections largest mismatch of the entire tournament is on Northwestern.
Friday’s FAU vs. Northwestern line lists FAU anywhere from a 2.5-3.5-point favorite. We not only make Northwestern a favorite, but have the Wildcats laying three points to Florida Atlantic!
Projections are also extremely bullish on grabbing Northwestern moneyline.
Our fair moneyline price is Northwestern -144 ($144 would return $100). Snagging Northwestern at the best price of +140 ($100 to net $140) marks the second of two gaudy A+ picks Friday.
