There are 132 Division I college basketball games today.Â
I know because I asked Greg Peterson, who knows because he handicaps every game every day on his Coast-to-Coast Hoops podcast.
But before we get to college hoops, let’s congratulate VSiN host Mitch Moss, who hit his first Royal Flush after Friday’s Follow The Money at Circa. Here’s the money shot.
OK, back to basketball. Selections are out for the Circa College Hoops Challenge.
Defending champion David Dineen went 5-0 on opening week, so let’s take a look at his contest selections for Week 2.
- Grand Canyon (-10.5) vs California Baptist * BEST BET
- UC-Davis (+4) vs CSU-Northridge
- UC-Riverside (-2) at Cal Poly SLO
- Air Force (-2) vs Fresno ST
- Fordham (+2) vs Davidson
All 75 contest plays are posted here on VSiN.com along with standings and contest rules. (I already sent the email with all the picks to VSiN Pro subscribers.)
Here is the deal on the contest: A field of 15 handicappers, pro bettors and VSiN hosts will pick 50 sides or totals through the NCAA championship.The contestants use Circa lines and have a deadline of 10 p.m. PT Friday to enter their five selections for Saturday’s games during the regular season.
Greg Peterson has posted his Best Bets for today’s menu, but Greg is also one of the contestants. So let’s see what he selected after a 3-2 Week 1:
- Iowa ST at Houston – UNDER (133) * BEST BET
- Samford (-16) vs W Carolina
- Iowa ST (+13.5) at Houston
- C Michigan at W Michigan – UNDER (149)
- Drexel (PK) vs Charleston
Adam Burke will post his top plays later this morning. As will Josh Appelbaum.
