South Dakota St. (+3) at COLORADO
By Jack Brayman
Tonight I'm on the college hardwood, taking the South Dakota State with the points against Colorado.
Remember when Jackrabbits became relevant several years back, with Nate Wolters starring from the perimeter?
Ever since, the team's standard has been raised. Tonight the Jacks are coming in after a 99-63 victory over North Dakota, and I like them to stay with Colorado tonight in Boulder.
The Jackrabbits bring a 9-4 record into the weekend after winning two straight, and remember, this is the same team that just missed an upset last week at then-No. 6 Wichita State.
On the other hand, this is the same team that has scored wins over Iowa and Buffalo, a home win over Dakota State and a road win against SEC-foe Ole Miss.
There are a couple of big wins mentioned there. Next up: Colorado.
Play the 'Rabbits.
