College Basketball Best Bets for Wednesday, March 8

Ohio State Buckeyes vs. Wisconsin Badgers - 6:30PM ET

Talent has never been the issue for Ohio State, and the Buckeyes have finally started fulfilling the promise of their talent in recent games. They won two straight against quality opponents, before playing Michigan State very close on Senior Night. It's not hard to see a scenario where Ohio State makes a run this week. Wisconsin on the other hand has not been playing well. The Badgers have not won two consecutive games since December. They're coming off a four-point win against Minnesota, and if their form pattern holds, they won't be at their best in this spot.

Boston College Eagles vs. North Carolina Tar Heels - 7:00PM ET

Boston College has now won four of their last five games, including a very nice win over Virginia. The Eagles lost by just eight points at North Carolina earlier this season. With one win already under their belt, Boston College will look to continue their momentum against a North Carolina team that will be feeling all the pressure in the world. If the Tar Heels lose, they will officially miss the NCAA Tournament. Only four times in 25 games this season vs. power conference teams has UNC covered 11.5 points. We like the underdogs who won't be feeling the pressure here.

BET: Boston College +11.5 (-110) at DraftKings Sportsbook

Virginia Tech Hokies vs. NC State Wolfpack - 9:30PM ET

NC State has limped to the finish line, losing their last two games of the regular season. The Wolfpack have not beaten an NCAAT team since January 14th. They haven't beaten an NCAAT team away from home all season long. Virginia Tech on the other hand has now won three straight games, and came up clutch against Notre Dame when it mattered most. In the same span that NC State has zero wins against tournament teams, Virginia Tech has three wins vs. NCAAT teams, and is 8-5 in their last 13 games. This is the same program that won the ACC Tournament last year, and we think their magical run could continue tonight.

BET: Virginia Tech +3 (-110) at DraftKings Sportsbook
