After an incredible opening day of Big South Tournament action yesterday, the Sun Belt Conference Tournament tips off on Thursday for college basketball fans and bettors to enjoy.

The Sun Belt certainly isn't the biggest nor the most popular conference around — and the conference's top seeds won't be in action until Saturday — but, today's games still have lines and therefore potentially offer betting value.

The first of Thursday's Sun Belt games is a matchup of No. 9-seed Texas-Arlington taking on No. 8-seed UL Lafayette. Based on the most current college basketball odds as of writing, the Ragin' Cajuns are 3.5-point favorites over the Mavericks.

However, when it comes to savvy college basketball bettors, they're clearly taking on a position on the Texas-Arlington vs. UL Lafayette over/under instead.

Let's take a look.
