Brett's Saturday Afternoon College Basketball "HAMMER DOWN" 3-Game Package - Game 3
Colorado Buffaloes (6-2) vs Tennessee Volunteers (5-1)
Saturday, December 04, 2021 at 2:00 pm
Tennessee Volunteers -4.5
The 13th ranked Tennessee Volunteers will travel to the CU Events Center to take on the Colorado Buffaloes and I think Tennessee has no trouble covering this small road spread.
Tennessee comes into this game with a 5-1 record with an impressive 17-point victory over North Carolina and I’m shocked to see the line set at only -4.5. Tennessee has been solid on both ends of the court this season, ranking t-35th in scoring offense & 84th in scoring defense and has also been good at winning the turnover battle as they currently rank 25th in turnover margin.
Colorado comes into this game with a 6-2 record and just gave UCLA a run for their money on the road, however, this Buffaloes team I think is a bit overrated and is still the same team that lose to Southern Illinois and barley defeated Duquesne & Brown.
The Volunteers are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games after allowing less than 50 points in their previous game & 35-17-2 ATS in their last 54 games following a straight up win of more than 20 points. The Buffaloes are 2-6-1 ATS in their last 9 games overall & 0-3-1 ATS in their last 4 home games.
Tennessee is by far the more talented team in this one and as I think Colorado struggles to keep up with the Volunteers in this one, I think Tennessee pulls away in the 2nd half and covers this road spread. Good Luck!
Brett’s Pick Tennessee Volunteers: -4.5 -110
