I might make a couple more plays, but these are the ones that I have locked in and feel confident about.
Eastern Illinois -1 (vs. Eastern Kentucky) - EIU beat EKY by 23 at home earlier this season. Eastern Kentucky isn't good on the road at all.
Marquette ML -125 (vs. Louisville) - The Golden Eagles are 8-1 in their last nine. Louisville can play like world beaters on one night and like crap the next, so if there's one side to pick in this one, it's Marquette, with Louisville coming off of a big road win at UConn.
Michigan +1 (vs. Minnesota) - The team who doesn't have much to play for vs. the team who has it all to play for. You'd seem to be leaning towards the team who seems to have more of a pulse right now, but I'm leaning towards Senior Night, the chance to play big-time spoiler, and not being sold on Minnesota being able to get it done on the road back-to-back.
Valparaiso -1 (vs. Detroit) - Valpo beat Detroit at home earlier this season and should've had the sweep (blew a 10-point halftime lead at Detroit). Detroit won their last couple of road games to end the regular season, but they're still a pretty poor road team overall this season and haven't exactly done that well against the teams higher than them in the Horizon League's regular season standings.
I also like UNC-Asheville -3 1/2 vs. High Point, but I'm probably going to stay away from that one. I wanted to pull the trigger on UTEP +2 1/2 at Marshall, but I think I'm going to see how that one plays out in the first half and make a second-half play, if I do anything on that one at all.
Poor night on the NBA front, huge night on the CBB front. Good luck everyone, and let's all make a lot of money!
