Pick Ideas

Be selective with Colorado’s spread

Colorado’s spread was listed around -17.5 to -18.5; compare prices rather than chasing a worse line.

Under 152.5 as a cautious lean

The under is worth a look near 152.5 because Colorado’s home-game totals have leaned under in the trend data; treat that trend as context, not a guarantee.

Skip the expensive moneyline

Colorado was listed around -1,800, offering little payout; passing is more sensible than paying that price for a standalone wager.
