Free College Basketball Pick Today: Akron -8 (-110)
Toledo will be playing their 3rd game in 3 nights while taking a monumental step-up in class. The Rockets come in off a win over UMass who was coming off a win that handed Miami-Ohio their first loss of the season. It was a great spot for Toledo, and they took advantage by shooting 57% (31-54) from the field. However, their good scheduling edge evaporates here against a 28-5 Akron team. The Zips are a significantly better team, especially on defense. They’ll make it difficult for Toledo to score, and it will be even harder on tired legs. Akron has dominated this series recently by winning 5 of the last 6 meetings, including a 10-point win earlier this season. Lay the points with the favorite in this game on Saturday night.

Free NHL Hockey Pick Today: San Jose Sharks 136
49 San Jose at Montreal
This is the third game of a five game roadtrip for the Sharks. They beat Boston 4-2 right after losing to the red hot Sabres in Buffalo. It’s also the first of three straight in Canada. As young and exciting as San Jose is, they are a very respectable 14-16-1 on the road. Winning 9 of the last 17 outright away from home.
Montreal has had the last two days off, after playing four games the previous six days. The last two being very important wins against huge rival Toronto, and the surging Senators. After playing tonight and tomorrow against western conference opponents, Montreal takes on Boston, Detroit, the Islanders, Carolina and Columbus. All teams in the top nine eastern conference spots.
San Jose has fared well in this series for quite some time. Both of these teams have a bright future, but it’s the visitor who gets our money on Saturday.

Free NBA Basketball Pick Today: Total Over 230.5 (-108)
Since 2015, NBA non-division conference games with double-digit spreads are 595-491-31 to the Over (55%). The Celtics should score at ease against an inept Washington defense ranked 25th in FG% allowed (48.0), 23rd in 3PT% allowed (36.7), and 30th in both rebounds per game (47.9) and offensive rebounds allowed per game (13.3). Washington arrives in Boston off a 136-131 loss to the Magic on Thursday, which is significant because this contest falls into very strong 390-292-8 (57.2%), 276-164-12 (63.1%), and 164-86-6 (65.6%) NBA totals systems of mine that date to 1989 and invest on the over in certain games involving .451 or greater non-division favorites of greater than nine points versus opponents entering off a loss. Finally, Boston returned home from a three-game road trip, ending with a 104-102 loss to the Cavaliers on Thursday. However, the Celtics are 59-41-2 to the Over (59%) since December 12, 2019, following a road loss in which they scored a certain number of points in the paint, going over by an average margin of +4.1 points per game.

The under falls into a very good 312-200-8 (60.9%) Conference Tournament system of mine that dates to 2009 and invests on the under in certain conference tournament affairs between .601 or better teams, provided at least one team scored fewer than 99 points in their previous game.

The Bulldogs enter off a 69-66 victory over Montana State as 1.5-point underdogs and will also be playing their third game in three days.

Take Virginia (#629)
There are no pointspread bargains these days with the Duke Blue Devils, a team that is ranked #1 in the nation at KenPom, Bart Torvik and the vast majority of advanced metric sites, as well as in the polls-- their full season stats are truly elite. But the Duke team taking the floor today is not the same team that went 31-2 to get here. Patrick Ngongba and Caleb Foster (#3 and #4 on the Blue Devils in minutes played this season) are both out for the ACC Tourney. That has left head coach Jon Scheyer with a perilously thin bench; using basically a seven man rotation (and the seventh guy probably shouldn’t be on the court very much). Playing their third game in three nights managing minutes becomes paramount; extending leads does not. Plain and simple – RIGHT NOW, TODAY, Duke is an overvalued commodity, which certainly helps explain why the sharp $$ is flowing towards Virginia in early betting action for Saturday. Expect a battle, not a blowout. Take Virginia.

Sport/League: CBB (See all free College Basketball picks)
Date/Time: March 14, 2026 6:00 PM EDT
Free College Basketball Pick Today: Utah State -1.5 (-110)
Utah State -1.5 makes sense because the Aggies bring the more complete offensive profile into this matchup, and their efficiency gives them the edge against a San Diego State team that can go long stretches without scoring. Utah State leads the Mountain West in conference scoring at 81.5 ppg, shooting 49.5% from the field and an elite 59.9% on twos, and they pair that with top‑tier ball movement and the No. 1 assist rate in league play. San Diego State’s defense is always tough, but this version hasn’t been as airtight as past years, allowing 70.3 ppg in conference play and ranking outside the top ten in opponent three‑point percentage. The Aggies also defend better than they get credit for—holding league opponents to 72.7 ppg and 43.6% shooting—and they’ve been the more consistent team over the last month. With Utah State’s offensive balance, superior efficiency, and the ability to force SDSU into a half‑court game where the Aztecs have struggled to generate clean looks, the Aggies are in the stronger position to cover this short number.

Free College Basketball Pick Today: Virginia +7.5 (-110)
Duke is entering this game shorthanded without two of their key players so Virginia should be very competitive in this game as these two always are against each other. Without some of their depth, they lay vulnerable to this Cavalier’s elite defense that leads the ACC in offensive rebounds. The Cavaliers can be more aggressive at the glass in this game without Ngongba in the paint, and offensively, this team has improved this season and in their three point shooting. This game should be a tighter game where both defenses show up and the offense takes a back seat, so the value lies with the underdog.
Bet: take the points with Virginia.

Sport/League: NBA (See all free NBA Basketball picks)
Date/Time: March 14, 2026 8:40 PM EDT
Free NBA Basketball Pick Today: Denver Nuggets -3.0 (-110)
These Western Conference foes just met last week with Denver earning a 120-113 home win. Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray each finished with 28 points in the wire-to-wire effort. Both teams are on equal rest after playing on Thursday. Los Angeles should be close to full strength for this one with only Maxi Kleber listed on the injury report. The same is true in Denver where the Nuggets went from one of the ugliest injury reports in the league in January, to nearly a clean bill of health in March. Peyton Watson is the only Nugget listed on the injury report, and he is expected to return within the next few days. This looks like a nice sell-high spot on the Lakers, in our opinion. First, let's take a look at who the Lakers have beaten during this current eight-game run: Golden State (without Curry), Sacramento, New Orleans, Indiana and Chicago. We're not racing to congratulate Los Angeles for beating those teams. We still need a larger sample size of Luka Doncic, LeBron James and Austin Reaves playing together for an extended period. Most of these wins have come without James in the lineup. Reaves and Doncic clearly have some chemistry, but when the three of them are on the court at the same time, the Lakers' offense has looked clunky. Denver is coming off a pair of big wins over the Rockets and Spurs to help the Nuggets' place in the Western Conference pecking order. We are comfortable laying this number with the Nuggets.

This is another spot where the book is shading the brand a bit too hard. Texas A&M is very good, but for this specific game the probable starter edge leans strongly to Oklahoma, and that drags my number toward the dog.

Projected score
Oklahoma 6, Texas A&M 5
Why I land on Oklahoma:
The probable Saturday matchup is Weston Moss for Texas A&M against LJ Mercurius for Oklahoma. Multiple series previews listed that exact pairing.
Mercurius is the biggest reason the projection flips toward the dog. Oklahoma’s official preview says he entered this start with a 0.39 ERA, 34 strikeouts, a 4-0 record, and even a seven-inning one-hitter vs. Gonzaga. TexAgs’ series breakdown adds a 0.64 WHIP and .118 opponent batting average. That is not just “good form”; that is cartoon-villain form.
By contrast, Texas A&M’s probable Saturday starter Weston Moss was listed at 2-1, 5.21 ERA in the A&M series preview. That does not mean he is doomed, but it is a clear disadvantage relative to Mercurius entering this particular game..
Now, A&M absolutely has the more explosive overall offense. Oklahoma’s preview notes the Aggies rank in the national top 10 in batting average (.344), OBP (.474), slugging (.612), and carry a 2.95 team ERA. TexAgs also notes A&M averages 10.06 runs per game, with Caden Sorrell pacing the lineup at .407 with eight home runs, while a healthier lineup may get even deeper with Chris Hacopian back and Wesley Jordan probable.
Oklahoma is not outgunned, though. TexAgs’ preview shows OU at .310 team batting average, 9.29 runs per game, and a 2.96 team ERA. The Sooners also bring real lineup threats in Brendan Brock (four HR, 21 RBI, 1.131 OPS), Deiten Lachance (.404 average), and Trey Gambill (.552 OBP, 1.157 OPS). That offensive gap exists, but it is not some canyon full of screaming goats.
The bullpen and overall staff quality also help Oklahoma stay live. Oklahoma’s official preview says the rotation trio of Cameron Johnson, LJ Mercurius, and Cord Rager had combined for 88 strikeouts against 17 walks and 13 earned runs, and it highlighted relievers Jackson Cleveland and Kadyn Leon, with Leon allowing no runs in 9.0 innings and Cleveland already owning three saves.
There is also a small contextual nudge from Friday night’s opener: Oklahoma beat Texas A&M 8-7 after erasing a four-run deficit, and the Sooners produced 13 hits. One game should never hijack the whole projection, but it does confirm OU can create traffic and finish late against this staff.
So the model logic is pretty simple:
A&M has the better overall offensive profile. Oklahoma has the better Saturday starter, strong enough staff support, home field, and plenty of lineup quality. In college baseball, an ace-ish Saturday arm at plus money is often a tasty little bet.

Projected score
Mets 5, Astros 4
Why I lean Mets:
The Astros’ listed starter is Ryan Weiss, while the Mets’ official probable-pitcher page still showed TBD for this game. ESPN also listed New York as Undecided against Weiss..
That said, the Mets beat writers reported Freddy Peralta was scheduled to pitch Saturday against Houston, which is a pretty meaningful upgrade from generic spring-training uncertainty. The New York Post noted Peralta was lined up for this game, and earlier in camp it also reported he had struck out four over three innings in a prior spring outing and is building toward Opening Day.
Even if New York does not get a full Peralta workload, the team form is better. ESPN’s spring team stats page had the Mets at 10-7-1 with a .232 AVG, .334 OBP, .382 SLG, 83 runs, and a 2.94 team ERA. Houston was 7-10-3 with a .193 AVG, .319 OBP, .304 SLG, 76 runs, and a 3.45 team ERA. That is a clear edge to the Mets in both run prevention and overall offensive quality.
The recent form also favors New York, though not by a mile. Over the last five listed games, the Mets went 3-2 including wins of 8-3, 6-1, and 9-0. Houston was also 3-2, but the underlying spring profile is weaker and the Astros have scored less efficiently overall.
There is still a real case for Houston because Ryan Weiss has been sharp. MLB listed him at 1.69 ERA with 6 strikeouts, and the Houston Chronicle highlighted him as one of the Astros’ spring standouts after his return from Korea. That keeps this from becoming a bigger Mets edge.
The bullpen/injury context nudges me a little more toward New York. An injury report showed Josh Hader out until April 10 for Houston, along with a couple of day-to-day bullpen arms, while the Mets are missing A.J. Minter and some depth pieces but still bring the better spring run-prevention profile overall. In a spring game that often turns into a parade of half-known relievers and baseball goblins, the healthier late-game setup matters.

Free English Premier League Pick Today: Total Under 3.0 (-105)
West Ham vs Man City
EPL, Saturday, 4pm ET
Play: Under 3 Goals
Odds at Time of Release: -105
Line Parameter: Line good to -120
West Ham are +365 underdogs at home, the Draw is at +320 and Man City are -145 favourites in the road, with the Spread at 0.75 and the Total at 3.
West Ham fighting to avoid relegation, currently sitting inside the red zone with 28 points, as many as Nottingham above them (who are in between their Europa League knockouts) and both teams 1 point behind Tottenham, who play Liverpool this weekend and against Nottingham next week. So West Ham would definitely fight for some points vs Man City, who also lost by 3-0 to Real Madrid mid-week and now have to overturn a 3-goal deficit at home next Tuesday.
West Ham are currently on a 4-1 run to the Under 2.5 Goals in league play. Man City are on a 14-2 run to the Under 3.5 Goals in the EPL and I think they will just want to spend as few resources as possible in this game, as they have a huge match coming up against Real Madrid.
For what it's worth, West Ham's coach Espirito Santo (which by the way literally translates to Holy Spirit), has faced Man City's Pep Guardiola more than any other manager in his career, with W4 D1 L8. Each of the last 6 H2H between these two coaches finished with 3 goals or fewer, and 4 of 6 went to the Under 2.5. This is a match-up that usually produces goals, but this time around it looks an awful lot like a careful match between these two.
The Play is Under 3 Goals (-105)

The Blue Jackets are worth a move against Phili. Columbus continues to battle in the playoff race and they are on a point streak right now where they are giving themselves chances in every game. Columbus puts in 3.15 gpg and with the addition of Garland, this offense continues to find a lot of chances on net. Expect them to control the zone and have the Flyers on their heels all game.

Free NHL Hockey Pick Today: Seattle Kraken -128
The Canucks managed to eke out a s/o victory over the Predators on Thursday. However, they haven't won two games in a row since before Christmas. Off four straight losses, the Kraken are coming in hungry. They've beaten the Canucks in five of the past six h2h meetings, both in 2026. With much tougher opponents (Florida and Tampa) on deck, the Kraken need to take advantage of this favorable matchup. They will. Play Seattle. *good at -150 or better

Free NBA Basketball Pick Today: Miami Heat -3.5 (-108)
Take #556 Heat Over Magic
Obvoiusly there was a lot of talk in the media about Bam Adebayo's 83 point game, and love it or hate it he still scored 83 points. But the Heat have moved on, and they went on the beat Milwaukee 112-105 on Thursday. Coincedentally Bam had 21 points in that game. The Magic come into Miami playing well, they have won 8 of their last 10 games, and 6-4 ATS. Keep in mind however, Orlando has won all four head-to-heads this year vs Miami, so the Heat have quadruple revenge here, and they do not want to lose to these dudes again, and we like the Heat here to win this one and pull away late.

Free NHL Hockey Pick Today: Dallas Stars -1.5 (154)
Take #58 Stars PL -1.5 +150 Over Red Wings
Keep in mind the Red Wings beat the Stars in OT right before Christmas, so Dallas has some revenge here at home. They play well here at home also at 21-7-4 in Dallas, and they have won nine of their last ten games including a blowout 7-2 winner on Thursday. We like Dallas in this spot and they seem to be a team on a mission right now, and Detroit has lost four of their last five, and seem to be regressing. We like Dallas here on the puck line as they have all kinds of firepower and the Red Wings are looking for answers right now, and likely don't find them here in Dallas.

Free NHL Hockey Pick Today: Seattle Kraken -128
Take #63 Kraken -130 Over Canucks
This is the fourth head-to-head between these two teams this year. Seattle has taken the last two and Vancouver won the first contest. The Canucks are just terrible, they are by far the worst team in the league, they have 48 points at this point in the season, which is 11 points behind Calgary who is the second worst team in the league. The Kraken are leaking oil here as well, they are 3-7 in their last 10 games, and they really need to start winning games as they are on the verge of getting the 8th seed in the West, right behind the Sharks and tied with the Kings and Predators. This game is a pretty simple handicap for me, I'm rolling with the Kraken here as they might even have a lot of fans here as well as Vancouver is a stone's throw from Seattle, and they Kraken likely get back on track here.
