Picks for Best Games on Wednesday, January 23rd
Tonight is going to be a bit slower than usual as there aren’t any great matchups but it still should be a fun night of games as there are games throughout the night. Here are my picks for all tonight’s best games
Purdue at Ohio State
7 PM ET on the Big Ten Network
Line: Purdue -1.5
Pick: Purdue
Against the Spread: Purdue
Final Score Prediction: Purdue 78 Ohio State 65
Why this pick? This Ohio State team is struggling, Purdue seems to have figured things out. This should be a Purdue win if this recent trend continues.
Georgia at LSU
7 PM ET on the SEC Network
Line: LSU -11.5
Pick: LSU
Against the Spread: LSU
Final Score Prediction: LSU 80 Georgia 61
Why this pick? This LSU team at home, playing the way they are right now. Take the points and pick LSU.
Texas at TCU
7 PM ET on ESPNU
Line: TCU -2.5
Pick: TCU
Against the Spread: TCU
Final Score Prediction: TCU 78 Texas 70
Why this pick? This depends a lot on how Texas shoots but I think that the Horned Frogs do protect home court and win this game.
St. Louis at Duquesne
8 PM ET on ESPN+
Line: St. Louis -2
Pick: St. Louis
Against the Spread: St. Louis
Final Score Prediction: St. Louis 69 Duquesne 62
Why this pick? This St. Louis team is clearly the best team in Atlantic 10, this might be tough but I think they win.
DePaul at Marquette
8:30 PM ET on Fox Sports 1
Line: Marquette -9.5
Pick: Marquette
Against the Spread: Marquette
Final Score Prediction: Marquette 86 DePaul 72
Why this pick? I think the Golden Eagles should be able to win by double digits at home.
Oklahoma at Oklahoma State
9 PM ET on ESPNU
Line: Oklahoma -3
Pick: Oklahoma
Against the Spread: Oklahoma
Final Score Prediction: Oklahoma 78 Oklahoma State 65
Why this pick? This rivalry always brings out the best in both teams but I think at some point the fact Oklahoma State will be playing walk-ons could come back to hurt them.
Yesterday’s Picks: 4-1
