BetMGM customers can take advantage of a college basketball Parlay Boost Token that will upgrade a potential parlay (of at least three legs and +400 odds) payout by a cool 25%.

Here’s how I would use my token for today, March 12:

College Basketball Parlay for Today

  • Dayton/VCU Under 124.5 (-105)
  • Texas A&M +5.5 (-115)
  • Houston ML -275
  • Purdue ML -350

Odds: +699 (boosted from +539)

For those that opted to go with my last parlay recommendation on Friday… congrats! It was a winner, and you picked up a nice +663 ticket.

For those that haven’t used the college basketball parlay boost yet, today is the last day for this particular one. Use it or lose it!

Obviously, there aren’t a ton of options on today’s board, with only five games wrapping up conference tournament season before the Selection Show.

Texas A&M and the A-10 under are doing a majority of work in this particular parlay. The Aggies are a pretty easy bet for me here, as 5.5 points is a lot to give in a conference championship game – especially when the team catching them just won this matchup a week ago.

VCU and Dayton have played twice this year, and they’ve both been slow, low-scoring affairs. I don’t see any reason a conference championship game will produce a different result.

As for Purdue and Houston, I won’t think too hard about taking coast-to-coast top-5 teams to win outright against inferior opponents.

Memphis might get a look here in the point spread market from savvy bettors, but old cliches about beating a good team three times in one season aren’t back up by year-to-year college basketball evidence.

Check your account for a parlay boost.
