Drexel heads to Trask Coliseum for a Coastal Athletic Association matchup with UNCW on Wednesday, December 31, 2025 at 7:00 PM ET on FloC. The Dragons are 6-8 and the road splits are a real issue, sitting at 1-6 away from home. This is a tough building to figure out when you’re not generating easy offense. UNCW is 12-2 with an 8-1 home record and oddsmakers are treating this like a potential separation game. The Seahawks are laying 12.5 with a heavy moneyline, and the total is 138.5. If you’re betting this, the handicap is basically about one question: can Drexel keep the possession count low enough that shooting variance keeps them inside the number? These are the current betting

DePaul heads to the Finneran Pavilion on Wednesday, December 31, 2025, for a Big East road test against Villanova, with tip set for 6:00 PM ET on FS1. The Blue Demons are 8-5 and still trying to prove they can travel, while Villanova is 10-2 and a perfect 7-0 at home. This is also a number-and-pace game from a betting perspective. Villanova is laying a big spread because they’ve been reliable in this building, and DePaul just came off an ugly offensive night in a 72-54 loss to Connecticut. If the Wildcats control tempo early, this can get out of hand quickly. These are the current betting lines for this matchup, but bettors should always monitor updated college basketball odds

Nicholls heads to Edinburg to face Texas Rio Grande Valley on Wednesday, December 31, 2025, at 5:30 PM ET at the UTRGV Fieldhouse, with the game streaming on ESPN+. It’s a short number, but it’s a meaningful spot: Nicholls enters at 4-8 trying to stack any kind of momentum, while UTRGV has played the cleaner brand of basketball at home and is laying 3.5. From a betting angle, the market is basically asking one question. Can Nicholls’ three-point volume keep them in it for 40 minutes, or does UTRGV’s shot-making and defensive edge turn this into a “win by 6-10” type of game? With a total of 147.5, the pace and foul profile matter too, because this number can swing

Connecticut heads to Cincinnati for a Big East road game against Xavier on Wednesday, December 31, 2025, with tip set for 5:00 PM ET at the Cintas Center on PEAC. UConn is 12-1 and a perfect 4-0 on the road, and the market is treating this like a tier gap with the Huskies laying double digits. Xavier is 9-4 and 8-2 at home, which is why the +12.5 is at least worth a second look instead of an automatic “fade the dog.” The handicap comes down to control. UConn tends to win games by taking away easy offense, forcing you into late-clock shots, then turning clean defensive possessions into efficient scoring. Xavier’s best chance to hang is to stay organized
