Clemson and Syracuse meet in ACC play on Wednesday, December 31 at 2:00 PM ET from the JMA Wireless Dome in Syracuse. It’s a rare midday league game with a pretty tight market, Clemson laying 1.5 on the road, and that tells you how close these profiles look right now. Clemson is 10-3 overall with a 3-3 road record, and they’ve been taking care of business when they’re expected to win. Syracuse is 9-4 overall and has been a different team at home, sitting 9-3 in its own building. ESPN2 has the broadcast, and the total is hanging in the low 140s, which fits a matchup that could be more grind than track meet. These are the current lines, and

Towson heads to Hampton for a Coastal Athletic Association conference game on Wednesday, December 31, with tip set for 2:30 PM ET at the Convocation Center on FloC. Towson is laying 5.5, which is a reasonable price for the better team on paper, but the matchup isn’t simple because the split is pretty clear: Towson has been strong at home (5-0) and much shakier away from it (3-6), while Hampton has defended its home floor at 5-2. This is the type of number that gets decided by possessions. If Towson controls the glass and keeps Hampton out of transition, the favorite can cover.

Northeastern heads to Greensboro for a Coastal Athletic Association matchup with North Carolina A&T on Wednesday, December 31, at Corbett Sports Center on FloC. This line is tight for a reason. Northeastern is favored by 3.5 despite a 4-8 record and a rough 2-6 road mark, while A&T is 7-5 and has been solid at home, winning four of six. From a betting standpoint, this is the kind of game where market perception can get ahead of actual environment. Northeastern may be the cleaner offensive team on paper, but the Aggies have a real home-court edge and a free throw profile that can keep underdogs alive for 40 minutes. These are the current betting lines, and bettors should monitor updated

Winthrop heads to Farmville for a Big South conference game against Longwood on Wednesday, December 31, with tip set for 3:00 PM ET at the Joan Perry Brock Center on ESPN+. Both teams sit at 8-7, but the market is pricing this like a mismatch, with Winthrop laying 8.5 on the road and a total sitting way up at 164.5. That’s the handicap in one sentence: is Winthrop’s tempo and scoring punch real enough to justify a near double-digit road spread, or is this a spot where Longwood’s pace and home comfort compress the game and keep the dog live. These are the current betting lines, and bettors should monitor updated college basketball odds on the latest NCAAB odds page.
