Cleveland State at Green Bay odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Thursday’s Cleveland State at Green Bay odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Cleveland State Vikings (18-11, 13-5 Horizon) and Green Bay Phoenix (3-26, 2-16) meet Thursday at the Resch Center in Ashwaubenon, Wis. Tip time is slated for 9 p.m. ET.

Green Bay is 1-18 in its last 19 games. That stretch includes an 82-77 loss to  CSU on Jan. 7, although the Phoenix covered as 13.5-point underdogs. In that game, the Phoenix stayed close by knocking down a season-high 45.8% of its looks from 3-point range.

Against the spread

Cleveland State plays a slow-tempo brand of ball, Most wins by a margin near this were against lesser non-conference foes. That’s much of the reason the Vikings have gone 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games.

Green Bay shoots a lot of 3s, has improved of late with its accuracy rate and is a danger for a back-door cover here. The Phoenix are a slight lean but likely only an actionable play at a +15. PASS.

Over/Under

The Over is 6-0 in Cleveland State’s last 6 games against losing teams and 8-1 in the Vikings’ last 9 road games against teams playing .400 ball or worse at home. The Over is also 8-1 in Green Bay’s last 9 games against teams playing .600 ball. It also is 5-0 in the last 5 series matchups.

Both teams play at a slow pace, but Cleveland State has picked its up a bit lately. The Vikings do well to generate points off turnovers and offensive rebounds, and that can lead to some quick runs.

BACK THE OVER 134.5 (-110).

Youngstown State at Green Bay picks and predictions

Prediction

Youngstown State 85, Green Bay 65

Moneyline

PASS.

There’s no value on the moneyline of the top team in the Horizon League playing the 2nd-to-worst team as a -1400 favorite.

Against the spread

BET YOUNGSTOWN STATE -15.5 (-110).

The Penguins have been one of the best covering teams in the conference this season and are 6-2 ATS against conference opponents. The Phoenix are just 3-5 ATS against conference foes.

Similarly, while Youngstown State’s defense is far from great, the Phoenix have a major issue scoring points, ranking 358th in points per game (59.9). Being at home hasn’t helped much as they are just 2-4 ATS as the home team.

Youngstown State’s dynamic offense mixed with its ability to cover conference and road games makes this the best play of the game.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 147.5 (-110).

Youngstown State is 13-4 O/U while Green Bay is 12-7. This game should get out of hand early, and it wouldn’t be shocking for points to be added late as the tempo picks up. Green Bay has gone Over in 4 of its last 5, allowing at least 80 in 3 of those battles.

The Penguins have gone Over in 3 straight, scoring at least 80 in 3 of those and allowing at least 69 in all 3 as well. Given the recent trends, back the OVER 147.5 (-110).

Green Bay at Cleveland State odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Green Bay at Cleveland State odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Green Bay Phoenix (2-14, 1-4 Horizon) meet the Cleveland State Vikings (8-8, 3-2) Saturday at the Wolstein Center in Cleveland. Tip-off is scheduled for 3 p.m. ET (ESPN+). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Green Bay vs. Cleveland State odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

Rankings courtesy of the USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll.

The Phoenix enter on a 6-game skid, while going just 2-4 ATS during the span. Green Bay’s last win was at home against Kansas City back on Dec. 10. In addition, UWGB is 0-10 SU and 3-7 ATS in 10 true road games this season.

The Vikings were on the short end of a 68-64 loss in overtime at home against Milwaukee, but it is 2-2 SU across the past 4 outings. At home, CSU is a respectable 5-2 SU across the past 7 outings, while cashing in 3 of the past 5 games on its home floor.

Green Bay at Cleveland State picks and predictions

Prediction

Cleveland State 73, Green Bay 62

Moneyline

Cleveland State (-1400) will cost you 14 times your potential return, and that’s not a good wager, especially on a team that is just .500, and has already lost to a Division II team this season.

PASS.

Against the spread

GREEN BAY +13.5 (-115) has a pretty dismal overall straight-up record, but as a double-digit underdog, the Phoenix are 2-2 ATS across the past 4 outings.

And Cleveland State -13.5 (-115) has been a favorite just once as a double-digit favorite, failing to cover Nov. 18 against Arkansas-Pine Bluff. The Vikings also enter on a 2-5 ATS skid across the past 7 games overall.

This wager comes with some risk, as Cleveland State has won 4 in a row in the series, while covering 5 in a row. But this is a super high line, and Green Bay would grab the cover.

Over/Under

OVER 127.5 (-110) might be the best play on the board in this Horizon League matinee tussle.

The Over has cashed in each of the previous 4 meetings in the series. Perhaps more importantly, the Over is 9-4 in the past 13 games overall for the Phoenix, while going 5-0 in the past 5 for the Vikings against teams with a losing record. The Over is also 9-3 in the past 12 games at home for CSU.

Green Bay at Georgetown odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Green Bay at Georgetown odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Green Bay Phoenix (0-1) and Georgetown Hoyas (1-0) meet for some Saturday morning breakfast ball in Washington, D.C. The opening tip at Capital One Arena will be at 11 a.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Green Bay vs. Georgetown odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

Green Bay lost its season opener 80-53 at Indiana State Monday, failing to cover as a 17-point underdog. ISU shot 54.4% from the field against a Green Bay squad that struggled in preventing buckets last season. Those defensive issues were behind the Phoenix going 5-25 overall and 1-13 on the road last season.

The Hoyas snapped a 21-game losing streak Tuesday when they beat Coppin State 99-89 in overtime. Sophomore G Primo Spears scored 28 points and senior G Bryson Mozone added 20, as GU won for the first time since Dec. 15.

Green Bay at Georgetown picks and predictions

Prediction

Georgetown 83, Green Bay 65

Moneyline

PASS.

Georgetown (-2000) should emerge victorious, but there is no value in that price tag.

Against the spread

Let’s try not to take too much from each team’s first game. A GU win by a margin in the high teens is tough to quibble with. PASS.

Over/Under

Georgetown plays an up-tempo style, and neither one of these teams played much defense last season or in their respective openers.

In 3 decent early-season comps to this-level, fast-tempo opponent for Green Bay last season, the Over went 2-1. Among Georgetown’s early-season comps to this one, last year were American, Siena, UMBC and Howard. The Over hit in 3 of those 4.

BACK THE OVER 144.5 (-112).
