Tigers Battle Bulldogs
The Missouri Tigers continue their seven-game homestand tonight when they tip off against the South Carolina State Bulldogs.
Mizzou is 5-0 on the homestand so far and 6-0 overall.
Mizzou Cashing So Far
The Tigers have been a good team to bet on so far with a 4-2 record against the spread. They have also been an under team with the under cashing in four of their six games.
Mizzou has only played one close game so far, and it would be stunning to see a tight game tonight with this massive spread. The Tigers have won their games by an average of 23.2 points.
Bulldogs Are Bad
South Carolina State is literally one of the worst teams in the country. The Bulldogs are 0-6 and KenPom has them ranked 349th out of 365 Division One teams.
South Carolina State is 2-4 against the spread with the under going 5-1 in their games.
My Lean
Let’s be real… this game is dumb. But beating up on bad Q4 teams is part of the recipe for looking good in the metrics for NCAA Tournament consideration, so here we are.
I wouldn’t recommend betting this one, but if you’re adamant you need some action tonight, I'd take a shot on the under. Betting the under has been a profitable venture in both these teams’ games so far this season, and with these squads looking forward to enjoying Thanksgiving on Thursday, I wouldn’t be surprised to see a lackluster effort.
