Northern Illinois at Gonzaga odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Monday’s Northern Illinois at Gonzaga odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Northern Illinois Huskies (3-6) visit No. 18 Gonzaga Bulldogs (7-3) in Spokane Monday night. The opening tip at the McCarthey Athletic Center will be at 9 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Northern Illinois vs. Gonzaga odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

Rankings courtesy of the Dec. 5 USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll.

Northern Illinois last played 10 days ago when the Huskies were favored by 2 points at Idaho, but were decimated 84-47 as they shot just 33.3% from the field. NIU has shot under 41% in 5 of its 6 losses.

The Bulldogs have played twice since NIU’s last game and since their last loss — to Baylor 64-63 on Dec. 2. Gonzaga’s 2 recent games were wins — vs. Kent State Dec. 5 and Washington Friday — but non-covers (loss, push) of spreads in the mid-teens. GU’s shooting percentage and pace are down a couple of clicks from last season when the Bulldogs’ scoring average of 87.2 points per game led NCAA-I.

Northern Illinois at Gonzaga picks and predictions

Prediction

Gonzaga 94, Northern Illinois 61

Moneyline

PASS on this offering; the true odds are very likely buried in the middle.

Against the spread

Gonzaga has not covered a spread since Nov. 20. The Bulldogs should have a solid chance of dominating every facet of a track meet in this game. NIU inadequacies on defense, in rebounding, and in turnover frequency get thrown into the mix with some likely rust here after the significant layoff.

The BULLDOGS -32.5 (-110) is a lean. More so is an alternate 1st-half line of GONZAGA -18.5 (-110). In earlier games against North Florida (Nov. 7) and Portland State (Nov. 24) — both teams rated higher by KenPom than NIU — Gonzaga opened up halftime leads of 30 and 24 points, respectively.

Over/Under

Both teams play an up-tempo pace, and Gonzaga could well race-and-triple this total into the mid-150s, even in a rout. But the total has climbed a bit since a more profitable open of around 150. PASS.

Rice at Texas odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Monday’s Rice at Texas odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Rice Owls (6-2) and No. 2 Texas Longhorns (7-1) get together for an instate battle on Monday in Austin. Tip at Moody Center will be at 8 p.m. ET (Longhorn Network).

Rice at Texas picks and predictions

Prediction

Texas 80, Rice 55

Moneyline

True odds figure to be buried in the wide expanse between these 2 prices.

PASS.

Against the spread

A Rice roster relying on a lot of juniors is likely better than the team that lost 4 Quad 1 games by an average of 28.0 points a year ago. However, it’s also an Owls squad that has played a weak slate so far and one getting its 1st taste of the kind of talent they’ll see pouring onto the floor from the other bench in this contest.

Texas is a lean worth a partial-unit play at -23.5 (-110) or better.

PASS OTHERWISE.

Over/Under

The Under is 4-1 in Rice’s last 5 road games vs. a team with a winning home record, and the Under is 4-1 in the Longhorns’ last 5 overall, too.

Texas focused in on a slower-tempo game — against fast-paced Arkansas-Pine Bluff — in response to its loss to Illinois. Rice counts on 3-points as a big chunk of its offense, but the Owls will be up against a Texas five that has held opposing shooters to a lowly 26.8% mark from beyond the arc (15th NCAA-I). Rice also has a high free-throw rate that does not figure to be as much in play in this contest.

Add in some expected shooting regression for 2 teams knocking down more than 58% of their 2-point looks, and the UNDER 142.5 (-105) is the play here.

The Buccaneers were given 3.5 points in Sunday’s game at San Francisco but came up more than 3 touchdowns short of that in a 35-7 loss. A minus-2 in turnovers and a 4 of 16 performance on 3rd-down conversions short-circuited Tampa Bay’s offensive efforts.

Oilers at Wild picks and predictions

Prediction

Wild 5, Oilers 3

Moneyline

The WILD (-125) are a solid play on home ice, especially against the very giving Campbell.

While the Oilers (+105) might be a tempting play based on the fact they’re 6-2 in the last 8 games, Edmonton has won just twice in the last 8 outings against teams with a winning overall record.

Puck line/Against the spread

The WILD -1.5 (+170) are worth a roll of the dice on the puck line.  Minnesota has cashed on the puck line at a 6-10 clip in 16 games as a favorite this season. One of those wins and covers came Dec. 1 at home against the Oilers +1.5 (-230).

Over/Under

OVER 6.5 (-130) is a little pricey, but it’s worth it.

The Over is 7-1 in the last 8 games overall for the Oilers, while going 3-1-1 in the last 5 on the road. The Over is also 5-2 in the last 7 meetings in this series, including both meetings so far this season.

The Over is 8-1 in the last 9 games overall for the Wild, while hitting at a 5-0 clip in the last 5 against winning teams.
