Free College Basketball Bet | Houston vs Kansas | Jan 25 2025

#765/766 ASA FREE BET ON Under 128.5 Points – Houston vs Kansas, Saturday at 6:30 PM ET

The 2 strongest units on each team are easily the defenses.  Both rank in the top 5 nationally in defensive efficiency and Houston ranks #1 in the country in PPG allowed while KU ranks #16.  Both defenses also match up very well vs the opposing offense.  Kansas does not shoot many 3’s (289th in 3 point attempts) so most of their work is done inside the arc.  Houston just happens to be the #1 defense in the nation defending inside the arc allowing opponents to make only 39% of their 2 point attempts.  On the other end, Houston makes 8.5 triples per game (111th) but the Kansas defense has been outstanding defending beyond the arc giving up just 28% which is good for 10th in the country..  Houston defense allows only 17.9 made FG’s per game which is ridiculous (1st nationally) while KU only allows 22 made FG’s per game (23rd best).  So in order to put up some points in this game, these teams better get to the FT line which we don’t see happening very often.  Houston ranks 334th in percentage of points from the FT line and Kansas ranks 364th (dead last) in that metric.  These teams have combined to play 34 games this season and 29 of them have gone Under the total.  Add another Under to the ledger here as we expect a low scoring, grinder type game.

Free College Bet today – Georgia vs. Florida, 2-17-24

Free pick today from ASA – Georgia +3 over Florida – Saturday at 1 PM ET

These same 2 teams played a few weeks ago @ Florida and Gators won in OT and Gators were +8 FT’s made yet still almost lost. There is a big difference in home/road splits as Florida is 2-4 SU on the road this season and Georgia 11-3 at home.

When it comes to betting value it lies with the Bulldogs today. UGA who is +3 in this game and most recent home game they were -1.5 vs South Carolina who is 9-3 in SEC in 2nd place and 21-4 overall. The reason we are getting that added value is a results of Georgia’s recent 5-game losing streak. Looking closer we see in those 5 defeats; three losses were on the road and the two home losses were vs Bama and South Carolina who are in 1st and 2nd place in the SEC.

Florida has won 6 of 7 but four of those were at home and 3 of those six wins came by 2 points or less or in OT. We are also catching Florida looking ahead to 1st place Alabama next on the schedule.

Free College Basketball Bet | 2/15/24 | Rutgers vs Northwestern

#718 ASA PLAY ON Rutgers vs Northwestern Prediction, Thursday at 6:30 PM ET

ASA BET: RUTGERS -3.5 vs Northwestern – Rutgers is peaking right now to say the least having won 3 in a row, 2 of those wins on the road, and in their most recent game on Saturday they rolled Wisconsin, one of the top teams in the Big 10, by 22 points. 

Much of that has been their outstanding defense holding 3 straight opponents to less than 60 points and all scored fewer than 0.87 PPP, but the offense received a boost as well.  That’s because Temple transfer, Jeremiah Williams, finally was on the court the last 3 games after missing the first 20 games of the season.  Williams has scored 42 points, grabbed 16 board, and had 9 assists in those 3 wins giving them a huge offensive boost. 

If the offense continues to improve, watch out.  They should play well in this one vs a NW defense that has struggled all year ranking dead last in the Big 10 in eFG% allowed.  The Rutgers defense ranks 2nd nationally in efficiency and have allowed opponents to shoot only 36% at home while giving up only 60 PPG. 

They are catching Northwestern in a bad spot.  The Cats are off back to back home wins vs Nebraska & Penn State, however this team has been flat out poor on the road with a 1-5 SU record with their only road win coming @ PSU by 4 points in a game the Nittany Lions blew and 2nd half double digit lead.  On top of that, NW will be playing without one of their key starters, Ty Berry, who injured his knew 2 games ago vs Nebraska and is now out of the season.  He is their top 3 point shooter and averages 12 PPG.  He would also be key in this game vs the Rutgers full court pressure so his absence will be a problem here. 

We feel the Scarlet Knights will be a problem for a number of teams down the stretch and call for a home win and cover on Thursday night. ASA’s Free College Basketball Bet for Thursday, February 14th.

Free College Basketball bet | Vermont vs Yale | Dec 2nd

ASA play on: #306568 Vermont -1.5 vs. Yale, 7PM ET

Vermont enjoys a key advantage in this game with the 30th best shooting offense in the country. The Catamounts hit 47% of their FG attempts (30th), 36.4% of their 3-point attempts (40th) and make on average 13 3-pointers per game which is 13th most in the nation. Yale is not known for their defense either as they rank 156h in opponents FG% at 42% and 227th in 3PT% defense allowing 33.5% from beyond the Arc. Home court will certainly be an advantage for Vermont who is 17-1 SU their last 18 at home with an average +/- of +19.4PPG. In comparison, Yale is 9-10 SU their last 19 on the road. Last season these two met in Yale and the Bulldogs won 73-44 as a 1-point favorite. The year before Vermont won at home by 8-points. We are backing the home team with revenge in this one.
