FanDuel promo code for Saturday college basketball games: Duke vs. Louisville, Arizona vs. Houston picks, odds

One-dozen automatic bids to the NCAA Tournament will be handed out during the Saturday college basketball schedule. All but two of those conference title games come at 6 p.m. ET or later, setting up a full evening of college basketball betting opportunities at FanDuel Sportsbook. The latest college basketball odds via FanDuel list Duke at -6.5 against Louisville in the ACC Tournament title game despite Cooper Flagg (ankle) being out, while St. John’s is -6.5 against Creighton in the Big East title game.

While those games will draw plenty of interest, there’s arguably more pressure in the one-bid leagues. The latest college basketball lines show Jackson State as 3.5-point favorites against Alabama State in the SWAC Tournament final, while Grand Canyon is -4.5 in the WAC Tournament championship game against Utah Valley in the 11:40 p.m. ET nightcap.

If you’re a college basketball fan looking to get in on today’s conference tournament action, the latest FanDuel promo code is one of the best sportsbook promos available in March. New users can bet $5 and get $200 in bonus bets if your first bet wins. Here’s a look at how FanDuel’s latest offer compares to the best sportsbook apps as brackets unfold.

Here are several Saturday college basketball picks to target:

Arizona (+7) covers against Houston

The Cougars have been one of the most dominant teams in college basketball this year, but they are missing forward J’Wan Roberts, who is the team’s fourth-leading scorer and leading rebounder. Arizona is coming off back-to-back wins and covers against Kansas and Texas Tech, and SportsLine’s model is projecting a two-possession game where the Wildcats cover in more than 50% of simulations.

Duke (-6) covers against Louisville

The model isn’t projecting much trouble for Duke without Flagg as the Blue Devils win by double digits and cover in more than 70% of simulations. Kon Knueppel and Tyrese Proctor are both projected to score above their season averages in the simulations.

Creighton (+6.5) covers against St. John’s

The Bluejays have won four straight and have covered in three of those four. That extends positive season-long betting trends for Creighton, a team that went 20-12-1 against the spread overall and 7-2 ATS as an underdog. Creighton covered once and pushed once against St. John’s this season, and the model is projecting this one to come down to the final possession as Creighton covers in well over 70% of simulations.

The FanDuel promo code is most comparable to offers from DraftKings and bet365 among the best sportsbooks, although FanDuel’s promotion requires a user’s first bet to win in order to be credited with bonus bets. While DraftKings and bet365 are offering bonus bets regardless of the outcome of a user’s first bet, FanDuel is offering more money in bonus bets.
