Where the Value Is

Break-even is the win rate a price needs to pay off over time. Expected value is the average result per bet if you made it many times. The Under averages minus $3.70.

The Pick

You risk $100 to profit $24.21, and it needs 80.5% to break even. This is a price play. At a worse number elsewhere the small edge can vanish, so the book matters as much as the side.

The Prediction

Little Rock 75, SE Louisiana 66. That adds to 141, under the 145.5 total, though we would not pay -108 for the Under. A nine-point win would also lose a Little Rock -9.5 spread ticket, which is why our Little Rock vs SE Louisiana prediction lives on the moneyline. Extra rest and the home floor favor the Trojans against a team on the fourth stop of a road trip.
