3-Unit Play. Take #871 Harvard -5.5 over Cornell (Friday, March 8 at 7:00 PM ET)
Take Harvard ATS as my 3-Unit CBB Smash for Friday night. This pick falls into one of my top college basketball systems and Harvard is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games. This is also a revenge game for Harvard after they lost at home to Cornell and Harvard is 25-8-1 ATS in their last 34 road games when playing a team that has a winning record at home. Cornell is 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games overall and Harvard is 32-13-2 ATS in their last 47 conference games. Conference opponents have shot 47.1% against Cornell this season and there is no way Harvard has 24 turnovers like they did in their previous game against Cornell. Play Harvard ATS as we move to 12-4 with my last 16 college basketball picks.
3 Unit Play. Take #860 Virginia Tech -9.5 over Miami Fl (7:00p.m., Friday March 8 ESPN2)
The Hokies already beat Miami on the road this season 82-70 so what are the Hurricanes going to do when they face off a mad Hokie team tonight. Va Tech blew a big lead on the road in their last game against Florida St and lost in overtime 73-64 but their last home game they beat Duke 77-72 and tonight I see another double-digit win for Va Tech. Virginia Tech is 6-1 ATS last 7 meetings against Miami and again I see a beat down tonight.
4 Unit Play. Take #886 LMU -4.5 over Pepperdine (9:00p.m., Friday March 8)
Pepperdine played last night and won against Pacific 61-53 and the LMU Lions rested and should have no problem winning this matchup. A little shocked on this number as I thought LMU would be around a 6-point favorite. LMU comes into this game winners of 3-Straight and with the success LMU has had playing in road game (winners of 4-Straight road games) I see them advancing to the next round of this conference tournament. LMU is 5-0-2 ATS when playing on a neutral court and yes the Waves have had great success over LMU but this is a much better LMU team.

The Kings are an amazing 13-4 against the spread when favored, as they are Saturday. But my advanced computer model projects a Knicks straight-up victory at MSG. They're covering in 60 percent of my simulations, a solid number that's worth backing.

The Wizards are a poor 10-23 against the spread on the road, easily dead-last in the NBA. The Timberwolves have covered just once in their last five games, but getting Washington at home (Minnesota is 18-13 ATS at Xcel) is a cure for what ails. My projections like the Wolves to cruise by double figures, covering handily.

Anaheim is not a good home team by any stretch, and it doesnt' step up when the underdog, just 18-34. Montreal is 5-2 against the spread as a home favorite, and my advanced computer model is confidently backing the Canadiens to win again Friday.

*** COLUMBIA -3
DARTMOUTH @ COLUMBIA | 3/08 | 7:00 PM EST
1:22 PM
Dartmouth has lost 10 of 11, while Columbia has actually shown improvement as the season winds down, coming into Friday having won three of four. Dartmouth's one victory in that brutal span was a 16-point rout of Columbia, but Columbia covers in well over 60 percent of my computer simulations in this rematch.

No Joel Embiid tonight for the Sixers, but without him in this current stretch, they're 4-3, with only one of the losses by more than three points. Houston has won six in a row but most of them have been close. The Rockets are only 20-27 ATS as a favorite, including 2-9 when the spread is between -6 and -9.

Few teams are as poor on the road as the Wizards, and my projections expect that to hold form against a Hornets team that plays far better at home. My projections put Charlotte on top by double the current spread. Jump on the Hornets.

Minnesota is coming off a huge win over Purdue to improve its NCAA Tournament chances. The Gophers could use another one Friday at Maryland, but this rates to be a poor spot. They have plenty of talent but have been wildly inconsistent and often lack poise on the road against tough opponents. The Terrapins will be looking to close out their home slate on a high note after missed opportunities haunted them in a home loss to Michigan in their previous outing.
