Best Bets in NFL and NCAAB for January 13, 2025
Categories :
As the NFL Wild Card Weekend continues and NCAAB conference play heats up, January 13, 2025, offers a full slate of exciting matchups for bettors. Whether you’re eyeing the key divisional NFL playoff game or top college basketball contests, here are our best bets for the day.
NFL Divisional Playoff
Minnesota Vikings at Los Angeles Rams (Game being played in Arizona)
- Spread: Vikings -2.5
- Total Points (Over/Under): 48
- Our Pick: With the game being moved to Arizona, the Rams no longer get the privilege of enjoying this as a home game for them. Both teams are stacked with high power offenses so we expect this to be a shootout. The big story is if the Vikings can recover from the beat down they took just the week before against Detroit. We believe they do. (Our picks: Vikings -2.5 and Over 48)
NCAA Best Bets
#22 UCLA at Rutgers
- Spread: UCLA -1.5
- Total Points (Over/Under): 138.5
- Out Pick: Both teams coming off 3 game losing streaks so something has to give. California teams traveling across country have not faired well in Big 10 play. However, Rutgers offense has been amiss the past few games and they lack an interior presence. (Our Pick: UCLA -1.5)
Minnesota at Maryland
- Spread: Maryland -15.5
- Total Points (Over/Under): 138.5
- Our Pick: Another Big 10 matchup with the Gophers going on the road. They have struggled mightily this year while their opponent is coming off a win against #22 UCLA. Home court advantage is huge in these matchups and we are taking Maryland. (Our Pick: Maryland -15.5)
