Wichita State vs Memphis Pickswise Expert Predictions

Point Spread PickBest Bet
Memphis -1.0(-115)

Who doesn’t love the Shockers here? They are 18-10 while the hosts are just 12-15, and Wichita State rolled 15 points in the first meeting between these teams. The Tigers are on a 4-game skid while the Shockers have won their last 3 contests. And yet, Memphis is the favorite. That says it all.

This play is about reading the market and backing the number, not the teams. The fact that Wichita State is an underdog here appears ludicrous and they look too easy. Generally speaking this is almost certainly means that win or lose, the Tigers are the side to bet on here. There will be a plethora of angles as to why Wichita State as an underdog could be the “best bet of the day” according to many eyes of the market. However, the Shockers are somehow a road underdog, and it’s for a reason. After all, Memphis plays at a higher level in the Music City, they are 10-4 SU in their own building and that accounts for 83% of their win share this season. The Shockers will likely finish with 20 wins in the regular season and make a deep run in the AAC tournament, but tonight’s forecast is a loss for Wichita State.

Wichita State vs Memphis prediction: Memphis -1 (-115) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.
