Read how this NCAAB Computer Pick uses artificial intelligence and predictive models to guide my sports wagering decision. 

Arkansas

The Razorbacks are led by Hall of Fame coach John Calipari. This is coach Cal’s first season with the Pigs after a long stint in Lexington with the Kats. 

When coach Cal left Lexington he left with two key players on this Arkansas roster. 

• Adou Thiero leads Arkansas in scoring at 18 points per game. The Junior started 19 games last year for UK. 
• Zvonimir Ivisic is a 7’2’’ sharpshooter from the outside who has started five games this year for Arkansas. 

Both Thieor and Ivisic are factors in this Rithmm Computer Pick Preview and Prediction. 

Coach Calipari’s squads at Kentucky were not known for playing tight defense but he has this squad locking down opponents. Rithmm rates Arkansas in the top 30 for defensive efficiency. 

Arkansas’ defense is a factor in this College Hoops Computer Pick. 

Arkansas’s Season Records

• 5-1
• 2-3-1 ATS
• 2-4 to the over 

Illinois 

Illinois is led by sensational freshman Will Riley. Rily was a five-star recruit and has lived up to the hype averaging 17 points a game. 

Riley is one of four players for the Illini averaging double-digit points. 

• Tomislav Ivisic- 15.5 ppg 
• Kasparas Jakucionis-12 ppg 
• Ben Humrichous-10.3 ppg 

Illinois balanced scoring attack is a factor in this Arkansas vs Illinois preview and prediction. 

Note Tomislav Ivisic (IL)  and Zvonimir Ivisic (AR) are twin brothers. 

A second factor is the Illini’s defensive efficiency rating, just like Arkansas they are in the top 30 according to Rithmm.
