NASHVILLE – We’re going back to the board at Bovada Sportsbook to find the six best college basketball bets available. Our best bets for Thursday went 5-1, so we’re looking to stay hot for Friday’s slate.

St. John’s -4 (-115) Vs Marquette

The red-hot St. John’s Red Storm are in a great spot to cover the 4.0-point line against Marquette after sweeping the regular season series. St. John’s has won six-straight games and cruised to victory against Butler while Marquette will be more tired after their thrilling battle with Xavier.

BYU +7.5 (-105) Vs Houston

The BYU Cougars looked impressive in their win 96-92 win against the Iowa State Cyclones, but they’re now 7.5-point underdogs at legal college basketball betting sites against Houston. Houston has been dominant but they don’t blow teams out, as they’ve won their last six games by single digits (1-4-1 ATS) so back BYU to cover in this one.

Best Bets For Mizzou/UF, Clemson/Louisville, And Bama/UK

Missouri/Florida O 162.5 Points (-110)

Both teams in this game average 84.5 points per game each, setting up the 162.5-point legal sports betting total to go over on Friday night. Florida has the rest advantage since this is their first tournament game, so expect the Gators to capitalize on Missouri’s tired legs and expose the lack of defense in this one.

Clemson/Louisville U 141.5 Points (-110)

Clemson and Louisville’s 141.5-point South Carolina sports betting total is 21 points lower than our previous bet, but we’re still going under thanks to two solid defenses.

Nine of Clemson’s last 10 conference games went under 134 points and these two teams combine for a 7-2 record on the under in their last nine games. Plus their regular season matchup from January had 138 points, so stick with the under in this one at -110 odds.

Alabama 1H ML (-225) Vs Kentucky

Our final best bet of the night is the Alabama Crimson Tide to win the first half against the Kentucky Wildcats. The Tide have cashed their legal Alabama sports betting odds for the first half in four of their last five games and they won the first half in both games against Kentucky this season.
