Tulane vs Toledo 11/23/2021 College Basketball Picks, Best Bets and Odds

The Toledo Rockets and the Tulane Green Wave meet in college basketball action from Baha Mar Convention Center on Tuesday.

The Toledo Rockets come into this game looking to build on a 98-86 win over Charlotte last time out. Ryan Rollins leads the Rockets in scoring with 18.3 PPG along with 4 RPG and a team-high 3.3 APG while JT Shumate has 15.7 PPG with a team-high 8.7 RPG. RayJ Dennis has 10.3 PPG with 4 RPG and 3.3 APG of his own to cap off the trio of double-digit scorers for Toledo up to this point in the year. Setric Millner Jr. also has 9 PPG and 8 RPG as well this season. As a team, Toledo is averaging 76.8 PPG on 45.9% shooting from the field, 35.1% from three and 77% from the foul line while allowing 75 PPG on 46.4% shooting from the field and 31.2% from three this season.

The Tulane Green Wave will hope to add to a 90-87 win over Drexel last time out. Jalen Cook leads the Green Wave in scoring and assists with 22.7 PPG and 5 APG while Jaylen Forbes has 12.8 PPG with 4.7 RPG and Kevin Cross has 12 PPG to cap off the trio of double-digit scorers for Tulane up to this point in the season. Tylan Pope also has a team-high 8 RPG as well this season. As a team, Tulane is averaging 71 PPG on 42.9% shooting from the field, 37.6% from three and 65.8% from the foul line while allowing 71.5 PPG on 43.5% from the field and 31.2% from three this season.

I get the case to be made for Tulane here as the Rockets just don’t look like the Rockets we’ve come to expect to take the floor compared to last season. However, side-by-side, I think the Rockets have the deeper team of the two and I think that depth will come in handy in the later stages of this one. Give me the Rockets laying the bucket here.
