College Basketball Best Bets for Tuesday, March 7

Virginia Tech Hokies vs. Notre Dame Fighting Irish - 7:00PM ET

Last year's Hokies became the ACC tournament champs with a magical run seemingly out of nowhere, and this year's version will look to do the same. The Hokies won two straight games to end the season in blowout fashion and are playing some of their best basketball of the season. Notre Dame on the other hand, lost eight of their last nine and the only win came in Mike Brey's last game as head coach of the Irish. We think Notre Dame will need a little more than luck of the Irish to make this one competitive tonight.

Gonzaga Bulldogs vs. Saint Mary's Gaels - 9:00PM ET

We can't get enough of the Zags right now. Gonzaga beat Saint Mary's by nine points two weeks ago and have now won eight consecutive games to end the season. Saint Mary's has been playing close games against lesser opponents, including San Diego, BYU and Loyola Marymount in recent weeks. The Gonzaga offense is too potent and high-powered to get shut down by the stingy Gaels defense. Drew Timme is 7-0 in his career in the WCC tournament, and we like his chances to finish his career undefeated there after tonight.

North Dakota State Bison vs. Oral Roberts Golden Eagles - 9:00PM ET

Oral Roberts may be the most obvious Cinderella candidate in college basketball this season, as Max Abmas is back for more madness after his magical run two seasons ago. The only problem? This line is over-inflated. Six of the last eight Oral Roberts games have been decided by single digits (including an 8-point win at home vs. North Dakota State). North Dakota State has won seven of their last eight, and has covered 10.5 points in 18 of 19 games. Max Abmas has only covered 10.5 once in 11 career games against the Bison. Tonight will be harder than it looks for Cinderella.

BET: North Dakota State +10.5 (-110) at DraftKings Sportsbook
