Bradley Braves vs Illinois State Redbirds Picks and Predictions – January 17, 2026
Saturday’s Missouri Valley showdown tips at 2:00 PM ET as Bradley travels across central Illinois to face rival Illinois State at CEFCU Arena in Normal. The Redbirds opened as 5.5-point home favorites with a total of 147.5, and the moneyline sits at -265 for the hosts. Bradley is catching +5.5 on the spread and +203 on the moneyline — a sign the books respect their competitiveness but expect Illinois State’s home-court advantage and offensive firepower to win out. With both teams fighting for mid-conference position, this matchup could play tighter than the line implies.

South Alabama Jaguars vs Louisiana-Lafayette Ragin’ Cajuns Picks and Predictions Saturday, January 17, 2026
Louisiana heads to Mobile on Saturday afternoon for a Sun Belt matchup against South Alabama at the Mitchell Center. South Alabama is laying -9.5 at home, and the line is built on two clear realities: the Jaguars have been reliable in their building at 8-1, and Louisiana has struggled all season, especially away from home at 1-9. The interesting part for bettors is the total, 128.5 is low enough that game flow matters more than usual, because one hot stretch or one foul-heavy second half can swing the total even if the favorite controls the game. This is also a matchup where you have to separate “who wins” from “how the game is played.” South Alabama is capable of scoring

Marshall Thundering Herd vs James Madison Dukes Picks and Predictions – Saturday, January 17, 2026
James Madison heads to Huntington on Saturday afternoon for a Sun Belt matchup against Marshall at the Cam Henderson Center. Marshall is laying -5.5 at home, which is a fair number for a team with strong home splits, but James Madison profiles as the type of underdog that can stay connected because it can score in bunches from three and it has already played Marshall tight. The market is essentially saying Marshall is more reliable over 40 minutes, while the Dukes’ path is a competitive game that stays inside two possessions into the closing stretch. The total at 152.5 suggests both teams will have scoring opportunities and that the pace should be at least moderate. That fits the matchup, both

Bakersfield Roadrunners vs California-San Diego Tritons Picks and Predictions – Saturday, January 17, 2026
UC San Diego heads to Bakersfield on Saturday afternoon for a Big West matchup at the Icardo Center, with the Tritons priced as a clear road favorite. The market is laying -8.5 with UCSD because the Tritons have been the more complete team this season, especially offensively, and they’ve shown they can travel with a strong road profile. Bakersfield’s home record is respectable, so this spread is really asking a specific question, can Bakersfield keep UCSD out of rhythm long enough to make this a possession-by-possession game, or does UCSD’s efficiency and balance show up over 40 minutes and create a two or three possession gap that turns into a cover late. The total at 149.5 is also an interesting

The Campbell Fighting Camels look to pull off a road upset, while the UNCW Seahawks aim to defend their home floor in this Coastal Athletic Association clash at Trask Coliseum. UNCW enters as the favorite, but Campbell’s offensive efficiency makes this line competitive. Current market: Check College Basketball Odds for live updates and sharper angles.
