Colorado State vs. Memphis Prediction
Based on one historically profitable NCAAB betting system, the Colorado State vs. Memphis prediction for Friday’s game is the Colorado State Spread (-2.5, -110).
Colorado State excels in one facet of the game: their ability to convert at a high rate from the free-throw line.
The Rams shoot 77.2% from the charity stripe this season, which triggers a historically profitable system in their direction.
Since 2006, tournament teams shooting north of 77.2% from the line are 49-16-1 ATS (75.4%), assuming they fall between -20 and +2.
But these teams improve drastically when they fit the system AND are listed by oddsmakers at a short number.
Sample only teams that fall between -4 and +2 and bettors will find they improve to 29-6 ATS, including 20-2 ATS when they fall between -4 and -1.5.
Additionally, bettors should take note of oddsmakers listing the lower seed as a favorite.
Two 12 seeds have closed as market favorite in tournament history. They’ve finished 2-0 SU and ATS in such contests.
As a result, bettors should consider laying the points with Colorado State on Friday.
