The 5 Best College Basketball Bets Of The Week

1) Kentucky -9.5 over Georgia (-110): This one may come as a bit of a surprise pick as Kentucky is 5-12 against the spread this season, while Georgia is 10-7 against the spread. Kentucky is coming off a big win against Tennessee on the road Saturday and I fully expect them to put on a dominate performance at home to continue to build their momentum.

2) Texas money line over Iowa State (+114): Iowa State is coming off an emotional loss Saturday against Kansas and I think that sticks in their head for this one. All the while Texas is on a nice 3 game win streak. I expect this game to stay close throughout with Texas pulling away late due to their superb guard play.

3) Kansas at Kansas state OVER 146.5 (-110): Both of these teams are averaging over 76 points a game so far this season. Kansas State has hit the over in 5 of their last six games with Kansas State putting up 90+ points in two of those games. As for Kansas the over have hit in their last 4 games against teams with a win percentage over 60%. Expect a shootout in this one.

4) Clemson +3 over Wake Forest (-108): Something about a ranked team getting plus points on the road screams easy winner to me, which is exactly what we have here. Clemson may be the hottest team in the country right now and they are boasting a favorable 3-0 record this season when playing as a 3 point underdog or more. Expect that streak to continue tonight.

5) Creighton at Butler UNDER 141 (-110): Butler and Creighton are two of the better defensive teams in the Big East this season and while both can get hot and put up points I fully expect an offensive of struggle from both of these teams tonight.

If you are feeling confident with all these picks a 5 game parlay here would give you +2793 odds for a nice payout. As always please gamble responsibly

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
