College Basketball Betting Picks & Odds | March 8
College Basketball Odds: Texas Tech vs. West Virginia O/U 145.5
Both the under and Texas Tech make some sense here. West Virginia ranks 135th in defensive efficiency and 102nd in adjusted tempo. Texas Tech is 76th in defensive efficiency and 167th in adjusted tempo. While Texas Tech head coach Mark Adams will be suspended for this game, the Red Raiders are finally fielding a healthy roster. Returning point guard Pop Isaacs, center Fardaws Aimaq and rotation forward Daniel Batcho makes this the healthiest Texas Tech has been all season.

College Basketball Odds: Georgia Tech vs. Pittsburgh O/U 139.5
Both teams have slowed their pace since the start of February. Georgia Tech ranks 221st in pace on the year and 241st since Feb. 1. Pittsburgh ranks 178th in pace and 212th in that timeframe. Georgia Tech is also fresh off a close fought game yesterday over Florida State. With Rodney Howard and Deivon Smith injured, this six-man Georgia Tech rotation likely slows its pace even further to accommodate fatigue.
