Elsewhere, the North Carolina Tar Heels matched a record-high 11 losses by a team ranked as the No. 1 team in the AP poll to start the year.

Best College Basketball Bets for Tuesday: Georgia vs. Arkansas

(Odds courtesy of DraftKings)

Georgia vs. Arkansas

Georgia not only ranks tenth in the SEC in adjusted offensive efficiency, per Kenpom, but it ranks tenth in scoring at 69.5 points per game. One of the biggest reasons for its offensive failures is a lack of ball movement, as it has the second-worst assist differential (-2.8) in the league. A lack of ball movement and finding open shooters will be the Bulldogs’ downfall against a Razorbacks defense that has allowed just 63 points per game over the last nine games.

Arkansas’s defensive success is largely due to its ability to run teams off the 3-point line, as it ranks in the top 15 in the fewest 3-point attempts allowed per field goal attempt. Georgia has scored just 60.8 points per game in its last five losses, which does not bode well for the Bulldogs’ chances of offensive success in a game the Razorbacks project to win.

Arkansas is coming off a massive 19-point win at Bud Walton Arena against Florida, and that bodes well for the Under, as it has cashed in 12 of the Razorbacks’ 17 games following a win. In addition, Arkansas tends to clamp down on inferior opponents, as the Under is 13-6-1 in games in which it is favored.

Bet: Georgia-Arkansas Under 143.5 (-110 at DraftKings)
