College basketball schedule today has 50 games
We’ve got several good games on the Tuesday night slate with major conference clashes and some good low-major matchups. It looks to be an exciting night on the college hoops hardwood, as many of them will be going forward. With only one college football game left and a limited NFL schedule after this weekend, college basketball will move closer to the forefront for most bettors.
If you’re just now diving in, try to tread lightly. Conference specialization is a concept I preach to a lot of bettors. Handicapping all 363 Division I teams is virtually impossible. Narrow your focus to a few conferences and become an expert in those. Study the teams, their styles of play and how the markets are viewing them. With the sheer volume of games in college basketball, oddsmakers are going to have mistakes on the board. If you can isolate them in your conferences of choice, you can have a really nice season.
