Every team in every league has opponents that, for one reason or another, they match up better or worse against. It can be because of strength, size, location, or simply good old-fashioned luck either way. But for bettors, not considering this aspect in handicapping games is leaving a huge void. In college basketball, it seems to be of particular importance, as some head-to-head trends have formed over recent years, uncovering what has turned into extremely lopsided series. This can be due to talent differences, sizes of crowds, and intensity of the rivalry, among other things.
I am going to reveal 30 top college basketball head-to-head series’ that have been particularly one-sided of late. I have also gone ahead and listed the next matchup between the teams in 2023, so you can mark your calendars accordingly.
Note that these angles are already 6-2 ATS in the 2022-23 season.
