Date/Time: February 17, 2026 8:30 PM EST
Free College Basketball Pick Today: Total Under 157.5 (-112)
This number sits too high for the way these two actually play, and the matchup history plus current form both point toward a game that stays well below the mid‑150s. Wisconsin’s offense has been strong in Big Ten play, but their games rarely turn into track meets because they play one of the slowest tempos in the league and force long, half‑court possessions on both ends. Their conference opponents are scoring 78.7 ppg, but that number is inflated by a few outliers, and most of their league games settle into structured, methodical basketball. Ohio State’s profile fits that same rhythm: they average 77.8 ppg in Big Ten play but do it with a deliberate pace, and their defense—while inconsistent—still holds opponents to 44.8% shooting and limits transition. The first meeting between these teams stayed under this number, and stylistically nothing changes here: Wisconsin’s pace suppresses possessions, Ohio State’s offense is far less efficient at home than the raw average suggests, and neither team pushes tempo. With both sides built for half‑court execution rather than speed, Under 157.5 is the sharper side.

Free College Basketball Pick Today: Kentucky -7.0 (-110)
Take Kentucky (#642)
I want the Wildcats off a loss, like the one they suffered at Florida this past weekend. Following Kentucky’s last loss, they covered the spread by double digits in their next game, winning outright as underdogs at Arkansas. Following their previous loss, Kentucky won by 24 against Mississippi State, another double digit pointspread cover. Head coach Mark Pope following the loss to the Gators, after Kentucky rallied back to make things interesting after a rough start to the game: “Our guys are always resilient. That's who we are. I'm not surprised about (the rally). That's our expectation. Our guys are fighters and they're not going to stop. They're not going to sit down. We just weren't quite good enough.” Georgia hasn’t been ‘quite good enough’ for weeks, now 1-5 SU in their last six contests, including bad blowout losses at Texas and Oklahoma in recent road tilts. Of these two teams, only Kentucky has played ‘bet-on’ defense in recent weeks. Even with Jeremiah Wilkerson expected back in the lineup for the Bulldogs tonight, I expect Kentucky to pull away and win this one by margin. Take Kentucky.

Free College Basketball Pick Today: Massachusetts +3.0 (-110)
How the heck can a team 15-11, including 6-7 in conference be getting only 3-points to a team 25-0 SU, 12 of those wins in same conference?
"Luck Factor" quantifies how much better or worse a team performs due to random, unpredictable events (like turnovers, lucky bounces, or missed kicks in football) versus consistent skill, using statistical models that compare expected outcomes (based on play-by-play data) to actual results, essentially showing if a team is "due" for positive or negative regression by filtering out controllable elements from their overall performance.
We take the luck factor gap based on real wins versus what advanced analytics says the wins they should have. If for example, one team has three more lucky wins than their record and their opponents has three fewer, the luck gap would be 6.
Miami Ohio has 4.1 more wins than they deserve with UMass .4 fewer, a nice 4.5 Luck Gap.
Home teams with two more or more losses versus opponent with one or fewer are a solid 56.4 percent since 2020. Unranked home teams in games expected to be close by the oddsmakers to ranked teams are 243-188-2.

Sport/League: CBB (See all free College Basketball picks)
Date/Time: February 17, 2026 6:00 PM EST
Free College Basketball Pick Today: Gardner Webb +17.5 (-110)
Gardner-Webb arrives off five consecutive losses, with the last two coming by double digits. In contrast, Charleston Southern returned home from a 90-80 loss to Radford as 4.5-point underdogs but defeated the Runnin’ Bulldogs 89-79 on December 31. Since 2007, college basketball road underdogs with same-season revenge are 323-234-13 ATS (58%) following back-to-back losses by ten points or more. This situation improves to 206-145-4 ATS (58.7%) when our road underdogs are getting double digits from the oddsmakers, including 90-53 ATS (62.9%) since 2021. Let’s also note that .200 or worse underdogs of +14 or greater with revenge for a home loss are 173-114-5 ATS (60.3%) since 2007, including 105-65-1 ATS (61.8%) since 2021. Finally, since 2008, double-digit home favorites are 374-482-12 ATS (43.7%) versus opponents with a subpar plus/minus margin after the midway point of the regular season, including 201-265-2 ATS (43.1%) since the beginning of the 2021-22 season.

Points allowed per game (since 1/1/26) | 84.8 | 71.1 |

Top 2 rebounders (season RPG) | Caleb Walker 5.4; Kam Sanders 4.0 | Tomislav Buljan 9.9; Luke Haupt 4.4 |
Injuries | Chris Catchings (Q); Keaton Frisch (Q) | Chris Howell (Q, wrist) |
Score projection
Total + spread breakdown vs DraftKings
Spread -27.5
Air Force’s average margin since Jan 1 is about -26.9 per game (already basically sitting on this line), and that includes games that weren’t against New Mexico’s profile.
New Mexico’s Feb ATS trend is shakier in some trend reports, but matchup-specific history includes Air Force sneaking covers in Albuquerque in prior years.
My read: New Mexico can absolutely clear this, but you’re betting on motivation/rotation late (garbage-time is the true apex predator of big favorites).
Trends & patterns
Since 1/1/26 scoreboards (hard results):
Air Force since Jan 1: 0–12, scoring 57.8, allowing 84.8 (avg margin -26.9).
New Mexico since Jan 1: 9–3, scoring 81.9, allowing 71.1 (avg margin +10.8).
Broader betting-trend feeds (context):
Air Force: 1–11 ATS last 12, 0–20 SU last 20 road, totals OVER streak recently noted.
New Mexico: 11–5 ATS last 16, 18–2 SU last 20 at home, totals OVER in a big chunk of recent samples.
Player matchup notes (form + fit, with competition in mind)
New Mexico offense vs Air Force defense
Jake Hall + spacing: Hall’s efficiency/usage profile (15.8 PPG season) is the kind that punishes slower closeouts; Air Force has struggled to keep teams out of clean looks.
Tomislav Buljan inside: 9.9 RPG with real scoring (12.3 PPG) gives New Mexico a steady “free points” option if Air Force can’t hold the glass.
If Chris Howell sits/limited (Q): more creation falls to Albury/Haupt; it can reduce some “easy” assists but doesn’t necessarily kill scoring because New Mexico still has multiple handlers/shooters.
Air Force offense vs New Mexico defense
Air Force’s offense since Jan 1 is 57.8 PPG—that’s the core problem. They don’t get to the line much, and when they fall behind, shot quality tends to degrade into late-clock stuff.
Kam Sanders (11.6 PPG / 3.6 APG) is basically the engine; if New Mexico turns him over or forces him into low-efficiency pull-ups, Air Force’s scoring alternatives are thin.
Lucas Hobin is the top scorer (11.9 PPG), but asking him to carry offense against a better, deeper Mountain West opponent is a rough assignment—especially on the road.
Bottom line: the talent/athleticism gap plus home court points toward a blowout; the only real drama is whether the blowout is fast enough to flirt with the over, or clinical enough to land under while still covering..
Why I am betting Air Force +28.5
28.5 is a monster number → backdoor cover lives here.
You can be “wrong” for 35 minutes and still cash if New Mexico goes to deep bench / drains clock. Big spreads are basically garbage-time derivatives.New Mexico is massively favored (ML around -50000) → incentive to coast late.
When the win is virtually locked, coaches often prioritize health + reps, not margin.New Mexico guard depth is dinged up (Chris Howell wrist, listed OUT in multiple injury feeds).
Even if New Mexico still wins easily, missing a primary ball-handler/creator can reduce “run-you-off-the-floor” minutes and make it easier for the dog to trade empty possessions and hang around the number.Air Force’s scoring “ceiling game” is real, and it only needs to show up a little.
ESPN’s game preview note highlights Lucas Hobin coming off a 26-point game. If Hobin (or one other Falcon) is even moderately hot, +28.5 becomes much more reasonable.Inflation / public bias tends to pile onto the fun team at home.
New Mexico at The Pit is a popular public click, and big-favorite lines can creep upward because nobody wants to hold their nose and buy the ugly dog.The “blowout script” can actually help +28.5.
If New Mexico jumps out big, they may slow pace (more half-court, more clock), which reduces total possessions and makes it harder to extend margin from “up 20” to “up 35.”Air Force injury news can be less damaging than it looks if it forces tighter rotation efficiency.
Catchings/Frisch have been listed as questionable on some boards. If one plays limited but the remaining rotation is clean and low-turnover, the cover becomes more plausible.
The one thing you’re really betting (the “cover recipe”)
Air Force +28.5 is basically a bet that New Mexico wins comfortably but not vindictively, and that Air Force avoids the two margin accelerants:
turnover avalanche → runouts/dunks, and
getting destroyed on the glass for 15+ extra shots (Buljan types).

Free UEFA Pick Today: Jagiellonia Biaystok Total Under 1.5 (-242)
This line is set super-high on Thursday and there's a very good reason for that, namely that Jagiellonia Biaystok are very likely going to struggle offensively in this one.
While the line on the total is set high, our numbers make it even higher (in the mid-260's range), as Fiorentina allowed just 0.83 GA/G to opponents during the league phase of this competition, while Jagiellonia Biaystok scored just five times in total, to firmly rank near the bottom-of-the-pack in terms of scoring.
While scoring 2+ goals here is obviously possible for the Polish side, it's extremely unlikely given they've yet to score two goals in a single game in this competition all season, and with this being their first-ever game facing Italian opposition, we don't expect that to change on Thursday.

Charleston Southern is laying more than two touchdowns today. A lot of points for a team which is 1-9 its past 10 games. That's how bad Gardner Webb is though. The Runnin' Bulldogs are 3-24 on the season, 0-13 on the road. They've conceded more than 100 points in back-to-back games. Also, the Buccaneers could easily be a lot better than 1-9 over their past 10. Four of the nine losses were in Overtime and another two came by less than five points. They're still a respectable 8-3 at home. When the Bucs finish on top, as they should today, the victories tend to be by a comfortable margin. Ten of their 12 wins have been by double-digits. Look for them to blow out the Runnin' Bulldogs in this one. *good up to -19

Sport/League: CBB (See all free College Basketball picks)
Date/Time: February 17, 2026 7:00 PM EST
Free College Basketball Pick Today: South Carolina +23.5 (-105)
South Carolina arrives in Florida off six consecutive losses, with the last two coming by a combined 33 points. In contrast, the Gators are coming off a 92-83 win over Kentucky and have won five straight contests, including a 95-48 victory over the Gamecocks on January 28. Since 2007, college basketball road underdogs with same-season revenge are 323-234-13 ATS (58%) following back-to-back losses by ten points or more. This situation improves to 206-145-4 ATS (58.7%) when our road underdogs are getting double digits from the oddsmakers, including 90-53 ATS (62.9%) since 2021. South Carolina has failed to cover the spread in 4 of its last 6 games, but double-digit road underdogs failing to cover by more than 40 combined points in their last 5 games are 394-296-8 ATS (57.1%). In contrast, the Gators have covered the spread in 8 of their last 10 games, but .601 or greater double-digit favorites that have covered six or more of their last eight games are just 403-492-14 ATS (45%), including 269-342-11 ATS (44%) since 2017. Grab the points with South Carolina as Jeff Keim’s Free Pick Winner for Tuesday, February 17.

Free All Golf Pick Today: To Record A Top 20 Viktor Hovland 135
Viktor Hovland has a strong track record at The Genesis Invitational at Riviera Country Club, posting a Top 20 finish in all four of his previous starts there. His results include a standout T4 in 2022 and consistent performances like T5 (2021), T20 (2023), and T19 (2024), showcasing how well the course suits his game—particularly his ball striking and creativity on approach shots.
After a solid T10 at the WM Phoenix Open (finishing at 12-under with rounds including a strong 65), Hovland followed up with a disappointing T58 at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. That result was a letdown, especially after early promise, but it came on a very different layout with challenging weather conditions—far removed from Riviera's demands.
Riviera plays to Hovland's strengths: precision iron play, creativity around the greens, and the ability to navigate a thoughtful, strategic course rather than one relying heavily on length or scrambling in wind. With his history of success here and signs of form earlier in 2026 (including a T14 at the Hero Dubai Desert Classic), this feels like a spot for a rebound.
We're confidently backing Hovland to deliver a Top 20 finish this week.

Florida Gators at Stetson Hatters — 02/17
What I’m weighting (pitching, bats, pen)
Starting pitcher form (edge: Florida): Florida is slated to start RHP Billy Barlow, who—despite a mediocre overall 2025 line—was nasty in midweek starts (0.59 ERA, 15 K / 4 BB in 15 1/3 IP) and already threw 4 IP, 1 ER at Stetson last year.
Stetson is slated to start RHP Zane Coppersmith, who worked mostly in relief and posted a 6.67 ERA in 2025 (and only one start). That usually signals shorter leash + earlier bullpen exposure.Bullpen skill / control (edge: Florida): Florida’s staff is described as returning a big chunk of innings and opened 2026 with multiple scoreless/debut relief gems.
Stetson through 3 games: 6.92 staff ERA with 16 BB and 16 K in 26 IP (control issues = free baserunners).Batter form + defense (edge: Florida): Florida’s offense came out hot (fast starts, lots of extra-base damage).
Stetson so far: .268/.381/.351, 0 HR, plus 8 errors (.931 fielding).
Win probability & fair odds (my projection)
Florida win probability: 76%
Stetson win probability: 24%
Fair American odds (from my win%):
Florida -317
Stetson +317
Book odds vs my odds + value
Book moneylines:
Florida -250 (implied 71.43%)
Stetson +190 (implied 34.48%)
Side | My win% | My fair odds | Book odds | Edge vs book implied | EV on $100 stake* |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Florida | 76% | -317 | -250 | +4.57% | +$6.40 |
Stetson | 24% | +317 | +190 | -10.48% | -$30.40 |
*EV assumes my win% is correct. For -250, a $100 stake wins $40 profit; for +190, a $100 stake wins $190 profit.
Bet value call: Florida -250 shows positive value versus my fair line (you’re paying less juice than my model says is “fair”). Stetson +190 is a pass/fade at that price.
