Southern Jaguars vs Florida A&M Rattlers Picks and Predictions – March 13, 2026
Southern and Florida A&M meet Friday night at 8:30 PM ET at Gateway Center in College Park, Georgia, with a trip to the SWAC title game on the line. Even on a neutral floor, this feels like a tight, high-pressure conference tournament matchup between two teams that know each other well. Southern enters at 16-16 overall after an 84-81 win over Arkansas-Pine Bluff, while Florida A&M is 15-15 after beating Jackson State 70-60. Southern is a short favorite at -2.5, and that number makes sense on the surface, though not by much. There is also some recent history here that matters. Florida A&M beat Southern 82-71 in Baton Rouge on February 26, so this is not a matchup where the

UCLA Bruins vs Michigan State Spartans Picks and Predictions – Friday, March 13, 2026
UCLA and Michigan State meet Friday night at the United Center in Chicago in a Big Ten tournament matchup that feels a little more serious than a normal conference game in March. The Bruins are 22-10 and just handled Rutgers 72-59 behind a historic triple-double from Donovan Dent, while No. 8 Michigan State enters at 25-6 after closing the regular season with four wins in its last five games. Tipoff is set for 9:00 PM ET on BTN, and the market has the Spartans favored by 5.5 points on the neutral floor. That number makes sense at first glance. Michigan State has been the steadier team over the full season and usually brings the stronger rebounding profile, while UCLA has

UT Arlington Mavericks vs Utah Valley Wolverines Picks and Predictions – Friday, March 13, 2026
UT Arlington and Utah Valley meet Friday night at Orleans Arena in Las Vegas with a trip to the WAC title game on the line. Tipoff is set for 9:00 PM ET on ESPN+, and the neutral floor matters at least a little here because Utah Valley has been dominant in Orem all season while UT Arlington has done some of its best recent work by turning games into physical, lower-possession battles. The Mavericks come in 18-13 after a 69-63 win over Southern Utah on Thursday, while the Wolverines sit at 24-7 after finishing atop the WAC and bringing one of the most efficient offenses in the league into this semifinal. There is also a clean revenge angle here, except

Nevada Wolf Pack vs Utah State Aggies Picks and Predictions – March 13, 2026
Nevada and Utah State meet Friday night at 9:30 PM ET in Las Vegas, with the Mountain West tournament shifting this matchup onto a neutral floor at Thomas & Mack Center. Utah State comes in at 26-6 and finished ahead of Nevada in the conference race, while the Wolf Pack arrive at 22-11 after putting together a timely three-game winning streak. Utah State is laying 6.5 points, and that feels about right for a team that has been the steadier group most of the season, especially away from home and in high-leverage spots. Nevada just beat Grand Canyon 84-80 behind 27 points from Corey Camper Jr., and that matters because it showed the Wolf Pack can win a game that

Kennesaw State Owls vs Sam Houston Bearkats Picks and Predictions – Friday, March 13, 2026
Kennesaw State and Sam Houston meet Friday at 3:00 PM ET from the Von Braun Center in Huntsville, Alabama, with a Conference USA tournament setting and a neutral floor that matters a little more than usual in this matchup. The Owls come in at 19-13 after a 96-87 win over Western Kentucky on Thursday, while Sam Houston sits at 22-10 and enters off a 69-61 win over New Mexico State. The game airs on CBSS, and the market has Sam Houston installed as the favorite with the Bearkats laying 5.5 points. There is real contrast here. Kennesaw State has played one of the more aggressive offensive styles in this league, pushing scoring to 83.9 points per game with strong rebounding
