Check out three NCAAB Race to 10 bets you need to make as we gear up for college hoops on Tuesday March 5, 2024:

Texas Tech vs Oklahoma State

Matchup: Texas Tech vs Oklahoma State

Pick: Texas Tech -135

Texas Tech are on a roll.

Though they're the road team in this contest, the Red Raiders shoot the ball far more efficiently than Oklahoma State. They hit on over 37% of attempts from three, and rank 21st in the nation in offensive efficiency, racking up over 117 points per 100 possessions. Our computer picks love Texas Tech to cover the spread.

In stark contrast, the Oklahoma State defense allows opponents to convert on nearly 45% of field goal attempts. They're decidedly average on the glass and don't get out and run. Let's roll with the far better squad in Texas Tech.

Syracuse vs Clemson

Matchup: Syracuse vs Clemson

Pick: Syracuse +130

Syracuse plays at a blistering pace, and do an excellent job of turning their aggressive defense into easy offense. The Orange are 13th in the country on potential points off of breakaway steals.

Judah Mintz had a great game against Virginia Tech. He finished with

29 Points
3 Rebounds
6 Assists
3 Steals
58% FG

They've won four straight games and put up at least 82 points in each contest. Remember, Syracuse upset North Carolina last month by forcing turnovers and being ultra-aggressive on the break. All three of Judah Mintz, Maliq Brown and Quadir Copeland average over 1.5 steals per game. Crucially, they're elite at getting to the charity stripe, ranking 30th in the country in free throw attempt rate. I like Syracuse to ride their defense to a race to 10 victory on Tuesday night.

Nevada vs Boise State

Matchup: Nevada vs Boise State  9pm ET

Pick: Nevada +105

Let's find the value with the Wolf Pack on the road trip to Boise State. Steve Alford's squad excels at getting to the free throw line, sitting third in the nation in free throw attempt rate. Nevada shoot the ball at a markedly better rate than Boise, converting on nearly 48% of field goals, and hitting almost 38% from deep.

Nevade are also one of the best teams in the nation at getting to the line, sitting third in free throw attempt rate. We'll jump on the far more efficient offense at plus money in our final race to 10 bet.
