Sports betting value can come from anywhere.

Sure, recreational bettors will overwhelmingly gravitate toward the biggest or highest-profile games on a given college basketball odds board for a handful of reasons.

First, the more popular the teams involved, the more likely that bettors know enough about them to feel confident placing a wager.

And second, most bettors enjoy sweating their action and therefore prefer nationally televised matchups.

However, just because the teams are well known doesn't mean that a specific game is also offering a savvy college basketball prediction.

In fact, due to the sheer number of college basketball games, the top values are typically found further down the board and often include much smaller programs.

This is exactly the case for Friday's college basketball slate, which includes a very unassuming St. Thomas-Minnesota vs. Western Michigan matchup that's landing smart money.
