College Basketball Daily Best Bets: Syracuse a Perfect Team to Bet the Under on

Saturday’s slate of college games includes five top-25 teams in action, but none against one another. The result of this is a large number of huge spreads, which always deserve caution, especially this early in the season. First, a recap of last night’s bets:

1. After a solid start to the game, Providence collapsed in on itself, turning a seven-point lead into a five-point deficit at the half, doing absolutely everything possible to not win or cover. The Friars didn’t hit the defensive boards, giving up 15 offensive rebounds. They shot their free throws poorly, shooting 13-26 from the line—with the ultimate gut punch coming at 45 seconds when they drew a flagrant foul and missed both foul shots.
