Northwestern Wildcats vs Penn State Abington Nittany Lions Picks and Predictions January 29th 2026

January 29, 2026 By Scores And Stats | NCAAB

Penn State and Northwestern meet Thursday night in Evanston in a Big Ten matchup between teams trying to climb out of the bottom of the conference standings. Northwestern finally showed signs of life on its West Coast trip, picking up its first league win and then hanging around against UCLA, while Penn State is still searching for a defensive identity and a clean 40-minute effort since conference play began. With Northwestern laying a sizable number at home, the bet is less about who is “better” and more about whether the Wildcats can create margin against a team that has still shown it can score in stretches. The game also has a clear script angle for bettors. Northwestern’s best path is

St. Thomas (MN) Tommies vs North Dakota Fighting Hawks Picks and Predictions January 29th 2026

January 29, 2026 By Scores And Stats | NCAAB

North Dakota heads to Saint Paul on Thursday night for a Summit Conference matchup with St. Thomas at Lee & Penny Anderson Arena. The Tommies are priced as a big home favorite, and the number reflects two very different season profiles. St. Thomas has been one of the league’s most reliable home teams, while North Dakota has been more inconsistent but is playing its best basketball right now with a three-game win streak and two straight road wins. The betting handicap comes down to whether North Dakota’s current offensive form can travel into a tougher defensive environment. If the Fighting Hawks score efficiently early and keep their turnover count under control, they can hang inside a number this large. If

South Dakota Coyotes vs Oral Roberts Golden Eagles Picks and Predictions January 29th 2026

January 29, 2026 By Scores And Stats | NCAAB

Oral Roberts heads to Vermillion on Thursday night for a Summit Conference matchup with South Dakota at the Sanford Coyote Sports Center. The Coyotes are priced as a mid-range home favorite, and the handicap starts with the split profiles. South Dakota has played its best basketball at home all season, while Oral Roberts has struggled away from home and is still searching for consistent offense that holds up outside its own building. From a betting angle, this game is about control. If South Dakota gets to the line at its usual rate and forces Oral Roberts to defend without fouling, the Coyotes can separate without needing a perfect shooting night. Oral Roberts’ path to an upset is narrower, but it

Hampton Pirates vs Drexel Dragons Picks and Predictions January 29th 2026

January 29, 2026 By Scores And Stats | NCAAB

Hampton and Drexel get a CAA matchup on Thursday, January 29, 2026, with tip set for 7:00 PM ET at the Daskalakis Athletic Center in Philadelphia. This one profiles like a grinder on paper, and it’s airing on FloC. Drexel is favored at home, laying 3.5 with a modest moneyline price. Hampton comes in as the dog, and the total is down at 127.5, which tells you the market expects half-court possessions, longer trips, and fewer easy points. These are the current betting lines, and bettors should keep monitoring the latest college basketball odds for any late movement on the spread or total. Hampton is trying to stabilize after a 75-67 loss to UNCW. The encouraging part for bettors is

North Carolina A&T Aggies vs Monmouth Hawks Picks and Predictions January 29th 2026

January 29, 2026 By Scores And Stats | NCAAB

North Carolina A&T heads to West Long Branch for a CAA game with real betting shape on Thursday night. Tip is 7:00 PM ET at OceanFirst Bank Center, and you can catch it on FloC. Monmouth is laying a fairly strong home number, which fits what these teams have been so far: the Hawks have been better in their own building, while the Aggies have been shakier away from home. Monmouth enters at 10-11 overall with a 7-4 home record. North Carolina A&T is 9-10 overall and 3-6 on the road. The market is asking one question: can the Aggies’ scoring and free-throw pressure travel well enough to keep this inside two possessions, or does Monmouth’s steadier home profile separate
