Minnesota Golden Gophers vs Michigan Wolverines Picks and Predictions January 16th 2025
The 20th-ranked Michigan Wolverines are set to take their explosive offense to Minneapolis on Thursday to face the Minnesota Golden Gophers in a Big Ten showdown. Michigan, riding a five-game winning streak, looks to solidify its conference dominance, while Minnesota aims to end a frustrating slump. Michigan (13-3, 5-0 Big Ten) has been on a tear, showcasing their offensive prowess against traditional and new Big Ten opponents alike. With victories over recent conference additions Southern California, UCLA, and Washington, the Wolverines have proven they can adapt to diverse challenges. Their success stems from a high-octane offense installed by first-year coach Dusty May. The Wolverines have scored 85 or more points in eight consecutive games, but May remains focused on refining

Oregon State Beavers vs Gonzaga Bulldogs Picks and Predictions January 16th 2025
The Gonzaga Bulldogs and the Oregon State Beavers are set to renew a storied rivalry that dates back decades, with an exciting matchup at Gill Coliseum in Corvallis, Oregon. This marks the first meeting between the two programs in 34 years, adding a layer of nostalgia and intrigue to this Thursday night’s West Coast Conference (WCC) showdown. Oregon State holds a commanding 25-2 all-time record over Gonzaga. However, much has changed since their last meeting in the 1990-91 season, when the Bulldogs were years away from becoming a perennial NCAA powerhouse. The Beavers have dominated the rivalry, winning 12 straight games against Gonzaga. The Bulldogs’ last victory came in 1932, and their all-time record in Corvallis is a dismal 1-8.

Seton Hall’s season record dropped to 6-10 after a 91-85 loss to Providence on Saturday. The Pirates, who were +8 point underdogs, managed to cover the spread. After a 41-41 first half, Seton Hall scored 44 points in the 2nd half but allowed 50. The game’s total points of 176 went well over the O/U line of 130.5.

Florida State Seminoles vs Pittsburgh Panthers Picks and Predictions January 15th 2025
Florida State and Pittsburgh are set to clash in a pivotal Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) basketball game on Wednesday night in Tallahassee, Fla., as both teams look to reverse recent downward trends. The matchup carries significant implications for ACC standings and postseason aspirations. The Seminoles (11-5, 2-3 ACC) are coming off a tough 77-57 loss at Clemson and have yet to secure a victory this season against Quad 1 or Quad 2 opponents. Currently tied for ninth in the ACC, Florida State needs a win to build momentum in their first of back-to-back home games. Head coach Leonard Hamilton emphasized the importance of leadership from key players like Malique Ewin, who has been a standout performer. Averaging 13.8 points and

North Carolina Tar Heels vs California Golden Bears Picks and Predictions January 15th 2025
As North Carolina prepares to host California on Wednesday, freshman Ian Jackson continues to dazzle, drawing high praise from head coach Hubert Davis. The Tar Heels (11-6, 4-1 ACC) have ridden Jackson’s scoring surge to win five of their past six games, climbing to within 1.5 games of first place in the Atlantic Coast Conference standings. Jackson has been a revelation for UNC, averaging 23.2 points over the past six games while shooting nearly 43 percent from beyond the arc. His offensive versatility, including his ability to attack the rim and hit from long range, has provided a much-needed spark for the Tar Heels. Jackson’s emergence has lightened the load on RJ Davis, North Carolina’s leading scorer at 17.8 points
