No. 4 Duke heads to Pittsburgh on Tuesday night looking for the right response after its rivalry loss at North Carolina snapped a 10-game win streak. This is the type of spot where elite teams often come out with sharper purpose, especially when the last game left a bad taste, late-game execution, second-half control, and a whistle that forced Duke to play through contact without getting to the line much. From a betting standpoint, that matters because it can change how aggressive Duke is early, how hard it attacks the paint, and how committed it is to building margin instead of cruising. Pitt is in a different place. The Panthers are struggling to score consistently, and they are coming off

No. 21 Arkansas heads to Baton Rouge on Tuesday night for an SEC matchup with LSU at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center. This is a game where the line sits in a practical range for bettors, because Arkansas is clearly the better team right now, but it is also not priced like a blowout.

When the Cyclones relax late, opponents can manufacture a run and make spreads uncomfortable even when the favorite controlled the game for 30 minutes. TCU’s side of the handicap is simpler. The Horned Frogs

Fordham heads to Philadelphia for an Atlantic 10 game against Saint Joseph’s on Tuesday night at Hagan Arena, with a 7:00 PM ET tip on ESPN+. The Hawks are laying five at home, and that tracks with their season profile: they’ve been reliable in their building and steadier overall, while Fordham has been more volatile but capable of hanging around when the rebounding and effort areas tilt their way. This number also fits the style matchup. Neither side is being priced like a track meet, and the total at 131.5 suggests the market expects a possession game with defenses getting set and free throws deciding late. If you like Fordham, you’re mostly betting that their work on the glass and
