This article is part of our College Basketball Picks series.
It was almost as if I knew it was coming. All three games yesterday could have gone either way and all three went against us. It happens, and while not much is different with today's slate, I'm still here, the ultimate grinder, trying to find winners for us. Even after yesterday's 0-3 day, I'm a profitable 21-16 on the season. As always, money management is an important part of sports wagering, so don't be afraid to go down to 1/2 units during this "dark" period of the season when the kids are distracted and the match ups are unfamiliar. Let's get some back today.

Wyoming Cowboys vs South Dakota State Jackrabbits 
Sundance Wicks has his Cowboys off to an 8-2 start with both losses coming to Top 125 teams on KenPom. At No. 175, this is not the caliber of SDSU team we are used to seeing in recent years. The Rabbits have struggled against Top 100 opponents with an 0-3 record and losses of 7, 14, and 23. In fact, SDSU's best win is over No. 272 Northern Arizona. Wyoming is the superior team and, if focused, should handle the Rabbits in this one.

Alabama A&M Bulldogs vs North Alabama Lions 
A&M is 3-0 at home against D1 opponents with wins of 4, 9, and 27, all over teams in the KenPom 200s. North Alabama comes in at No. 217, right in line with their previous opponents. You may ask yourself, why is North Alabama favored? Well, the Lions' win at No. 94 San Francisco on December 3 surely plays a significant role in this number. However, that win is a big outlier compared to the rest of their results and the Dons were 9-31 from three in that game. Things get back to normal tonight and A&M wins as a strong home dog.
College Basketball Best Bet: Alabama A&M +2.5 (@ BetRivers)

McNeese Cowboys at Houston Christian Huskies 
The Cowboys have righted the ship after their loss at Incarnate Word to open Southland play on December 1. In their three games against teams outside the Top 200, the McNeese offense has opened up with those games resulting in 150, 146, and 168 points, respectively. Houston Christian plays at a slow pace, but the Huskies are so bad defensively that it hasn't kept the totals in their games from going above this low number. McNeese should have very little resistance in what should be a relatively free-flowing game.
College Basketball Best Bet: McNeese/Houston Christian OVER 136.5
