TOM STRYKER’S FREE BASKETBALL SELECTION SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 8TH
#688 NORTH TEXAS (-9) over Tulane at 3 PM EST
In a really bad mood off back-to-back straight up losses to UTSA and UAB, second-year head coach Ross Hodge will have the Mean Green ready to go when the Green Wave check in on Saturday afternoon. Tulane enters this AAC battle off a pair of straight up wins over Tulsa and UTSA and this will prove to be a difficult encore for skipper Ron Hunter and his boys.
Last year, these two teams tangled three times and North Texas inked a golden 3-0 SU and ATS record. Equally impressive, at home since the start of the 2019 season, the Mean Green own a spectacular 70-16 SU and 40-31-1 ATS mark including a highly profitable 25-6 SU and 19-10 ATS provided they played on the road in their last game. With those two parameters live and UNT rolling with four or more days of rest, this situation zips to a solid 19-3 SU and 15-6 ATS. Lastly, when coming off two or more straight up losses, Coach Hodge and his crew own a respectable 10-4 SU and 10-3 ATS tally.
In the middle of a 16-22 SU and 15-21 ATS run, Tulane hasn’t exactly been playing its best basketball lately. Provided the Green Wave are priced as an underdog or a short favorite of -5.5 or less, Tulane falls to a rough 9-20 SU and 9-18 ATS. Additionally, when rolling with revenge of any kind and holding a team won/loss percentage of .501 or higher, Coach Hunter and his players own a surprising 49-105 SU and 58-89-3 ATS record including a woeful 23-45 SU and 22-43-2 ATS provided they played on the road in their last battle. With those two parameters live and the Wave facing a conference foe, this team trend crashes to a woeful 19-41 SU and 17-41-2 ATS.
Holding a sensational 11-1 SU mark in their own backyard and packing a defense that has allowed an average of only 57.4 points per game at home since 2020, the Mean Green will continue their dominance over the Green Wave and grab another dub and cover. Take North Texas. Thanks and best of luck, Tom.
