I'm ringing in the New Year with a +2370 parlay using PRO data.
2026 tips off with all-day action on January 1. Four top college basketball picks powered by PRO’s sharpest data-driven models and premium resources are certainly worth a look.
From moneylines and spreads to over/unders, these games feature odds well off projections.
- Green Bay vs. IPFW (2 p.m. ET)
- Cal Baptist vs. UT Arlington (3 p.m. ET)
- Northern Iowa vs. Indiana State (8 p.m. ET)
- EIU vs. SEMO (8:30 p.m. ET)
Advanced projections like a big underdog to perhaps win outright, and two random totals are off by at least 5 points.
Let's lock in some smart bets and enjoy the New Year.
College Basketball Picks & +2370 Parlay for January 1st
Green Bay vs. IPFW NCAAB Pick Thursday
Odds: IPFW -7.5; O/U 149.5
A high-value upset pick is Green Bay over IPFW.
The spread is IPFW -7.5, which is much longer than the Action PRO line of IPFW -4.7.
Taking Green Bay straight-up is the move, with the moneyline odds +255 a great bet compared to PRO's +181 price tag.
PRO Pick: Green Bay Moneyline
Cal Baptist vs. UT Arlington NCAAB Pick Thursday
Odds: Cal Baptist -1.5; O/U 135.5
Cal Baptist vs. UT Arlington should be a competitive game. But rather than hitting the moneyline or spread, projections flagged the total as the smart bet.
PRO Projections spit out a chunky edge and Grade-A pick on the game under 135.5, with a fair total of 127.5 at open and adjusted to 130.5.
PRO Pick: Cal Baptist vs. UT Arlington Under
