Finding college basketball picks with value has nothing to do with how big or high-profile a game might be.

Sure, savvy picks can come from anywhere, whether that's a prime-time matchup between two blue-blood programs or a random matchup between two teams that have combined for a grand total of 14 wins that can only be seen on ESPN+.

The latter is exactly what we have on Wednesday with Navy vs. Loyola serving as tonight's biggest betting model edge. This game is unlikely to drive any sort of attention — or betting hand, for that matter — from recreational bettors, but that doesn't mean there isn't value.

Here are the three smartest college basketball picks for Wednesday based on our betting model's top edges.

Remember, data doesn't understand the team names on the jerseys, nor does it consider how convenient it is to watch a given game. All that matters is value.

And when it comes to Navy vs. Loyola, there appears to be plenty of it.
