There aren’t as many great games on the second day of the NCAA Basketball but Auburn vs Baylor stands out. What are the key games to watch?

Day 1 is in the books and there have already been some huge upsets. James Madison and Abilene Christian had huge wins. A rtop-5 team (Michigan State) has already lost, along with other notable upsets such as VCU falling to McNeese State. Some other power five schools had scares but ended up winning their games. Day 2 is going to have some more ranked teams who have a chance to lose as well. There is also one mid major I am very high on that can put a power school on watch.

Yesterday in my picks I went 95-16 overall. Remember, these are just the straight up winners, point spreads are not taken into account if I count a win. There are significantly less games after a huge opening night slate but there is a key matchup of top-30 teams between Auburn and Baylor to lead the slate. Here are the picks for November 7th, 2023.

Drexel over La Salle

Indiana over Florida Gulf Coast

St. John’s over Stony Brook

UMass over Albany

Maryland over Mount St. Mary’s

Georgetown over Le Moyne

North Texas over Northern Iowa

Iowa over North Dakota

Vanderbilt over Presbyterian

Michigan over UNC Asheville

Creighton over Florida A&M

Baylor over Auburn

DePaul over Fort Wayne

San Jose State over UC Irvine

Nevada over Sacramento State
