Duquesne
Pick - Spread
Delaware +3.5 (-110)
This is a far different Duquesne team than the one that upset BYU in the opening round of the NCAA tournament in March. The Dukes are now led by first-time head coach Dru Joyce III and they lost their top-four scorers from last season. That inexperience has shown with the Dukes going just 1-7 SU and ATS to begin the season. Their only win came against Old Dominion who is at No. 328 in the KenPom ratings and now they face a Delaware squad that is more than 100 spots better. The Blue Hens are 4-2 SU and 6-0 ATS in their last six games which includes road wins against Rider and Iona. Delaware has been clicking on offense, ranking 67th in the country with a 54.8 EFG% and all five starters are averaging double digits in points.

-110
UNT was 11th in the country in scoring defense last season and has been even better this year, ranking 15th in the nation in adjusted defensive efficiency and 357th in adjusted tempo. The Mean Green have held five of their last seven opponents to fewer than 60 points, including Oregon State (55 points) and Minnesota (51). High Point can shoot the ball but we've seen their offense struggle at times. The Panthers were held to just 61 points against Missouri State and were also limited to 68 points versus UNC Greensboro and UAB — none of whom are anywhere near as dominant defensively as UNT. The Mean Green force turnovers at the third-highest rate in the country and rank 21st in defensive rebounding rate so they'll be able to disrupt High Point's ball-handlers and prevent second chances.

Northwestern
Pick - Spread
Illinois -3.5 (-110)
Illinois is 6-1 and ranks in the Top 25 in both adjusted offense and defense per KenPom. The college basketball world is focused on the freshmen classes at Duke and Rutgers but Illinois might have the best freshmen duo in the country in Kasparas Jakucionis and Will Riley. Jakucionis (13.6 ppg, 6.0 rpg, 6.0 apg) is a possible Top-5 pick in next year's draft while Riley (15.4 ppg, 50 3PT%) looks like the next elite prospect from Canada. I haven't even mentioned center Tomislav Ivisic (16.3 ppg, 8.9 rpg) and set-up man Kylan Boswell. That talent and firepower will be too much for a Northwestern squad that has been held below 70 points in five of eight games this season and ranks 199th in the country in EFG% (49.9%).
