Belmont Bruins vs Valparaiso Beacons Picks and Predictions January 28th 2026
Belmont heads to Valparaiso for a Missouri Valley matchup on Wednesday, January 28, 2026 at 8:00 PM ET. It’s at the Athletics-Recreation Center on ESPN+, and the number is telling you this is a real road test, not a walk-through, even with Belmont sitting at 18-3. The Bruins have been a machine away from home at 9-1, which is why oddsmakers are still comfortable making them the favorite in a building where Valparaiso has gone 9-3. Belmont already beat the Beacons 78-74 earlier this season, and that’s the key context: these teams can play a competitive game without Belmont needing to be perfect. The market is basically asking whether Belmont’s efficiency travels again or whether Valpo’s home form can turn

UCLA Bruins vs Oregon Ducks Picks and Predictions January 28th 2026
UCLA heads to Eugene for a late Big Ten tip against Oregon on Wednesday, January 28, 2026 at 11:00 PM ET. It’s at Matthew Knight Arena on BTN, and the market is asking you to decide which split matters more: UCLA’s talent edge or UCLA’s 2-5 road record. The Bruins are 14-6 overall and have been dominant at home, but they have not traveled as well. Oregon is 8-12, yet 7-4 at home, which is the only reason this spread is sitting in a reasonable range instead of closer to two possessions. UCLA is laying 4.5 with a modest total of 137.5. That’s a classic late-night setup where pace and shot quality decide everything. If UCLA gets clean looks early,

Colorado State Rams vs San Diego State Aztecs Picks and Predictions January 28th 2026
Colorado State heads to Viejas Arena for a Mountain West game against San Diego State on Wednesday, January 28, 2026 at 10:30 PM ET. It’s on FS1, late window, and the market is telling you to respect the venue. San Diego State is laying 8.5 at home. The Rams are 12-8 with a 4-4 road split, which is at least competent for a true road underdog. The Aztecs are 14-5 overall and 10-4 at home, and they’ve had enough offensive pop this season to turn solid defense into separation. The spread is big because Viejas can be a grind, and grind games tend to create margin when one side is better defensively and rebounds. The total is the other lever.

Northern Iowa Panthers vs Southern Illinois Salukis Picks and Predictions January 28th 2026
Northern Iowa heads to Carbondale on Wednesday night to face Southern Illinois at the Banterra Center, with tipoff set for 7:00 PM ET. This Missouri Valley Conference matchup profiles as one of the tighter games on the slate, with the market installing Southern Illinois as a narrow home favorite. Both teams are familiar with each other’s tendencies, which often leads to lower-variance games and late decisions. Northern Iowa enters this spot looking to steady itself in conference play, leaning on execution and half-court offense rather than pace. Southern Illinois, meanwhile, tends to play with more physicality at home, where defensive pressure and rebounding usually set the tone early. With the spread sitting inside a single possession, every trip down the

Charlotte 49ers vs Temple Owls Picks and Predictions January 28th 2026
Charlotte heads to Philadelphia on Wednesday night to face Temple at the Liacouras Center, with tipoff scheduled for 7:00 PM ET. This AAC matchup puts Temple in the favorite role at home, while Charlotte arrives as a road underdog trying to stay competitive in a conference environment that has not been friendly away from home. The market reflects that dynamic with Temple laying just over two possessions. The 49ers have shown flashes of offensive rhythm this season, but consistency has been an issue, especially when pace slows. Temple, meanwhile, tends to lean on defense and physicality, particularly at home where the Owls are comfortable turning games into half-court battles. That contrast sets up a matchup where execution and late-game discipline
