NCAA Basketball: Picks for Day 15 of 2023-24 season

Monday of NCAA Basketball “Feast Week” is the start of the Maui Invitational. Which teams will win the quarterfinal matchups?

Welcome to Feast Week officially. The Houston Cougars won the Charleston Classic, the Liberty Flames won the Myrtle Beach Invitational, San Diego State won the Main Event, Miami won the Bahamas Championship, Mississippi State won the Hall of Fame Tip Off and South Carolina won the Arizona Tip-Off. That brings you up to speed with Multi Team events that concluded yesterday and sets the table for a huge week of college basketball including the best Maui Invitational ever!

Yesterday was like any other day in the sport and there were a ton of great games and some potential upsets that didn’t end up happening. Louisville came out of nowhere to almost beat Texas, Jackson State who was previously 0-5 beat Missouri in Columbia just days after the Tigers came back from 20 down to beat Minnesota. Finally Georgetown narrowly escaped American University and needed overtime to finally beat them. It was another crazy day and I hope for the same today.

I went 44-15 in my picks yesterday which brings me to a 14 day total of 492-147. The slate today is huge as the Maui Invitational kicks off. This is arguably the best field that have ever been in Maui and those games are going to dominate the slate today. As the week rolls on there will be fewer and fewer games due to the Thanksgiving holiday but there are great games on up until that. Picks for Day 15 November 20, 2023 are below.
