I have been waiting on this game for a few weeks now and was actually going to lay more than i am now as I was hoping for the game to open up at 4 or 5. JMU figured the Tribe out a little bit in their game 2 weeks ago as they moved to a 3-2 zone on defense and it looked like they were actually able to contain the picks and backdoor cuts of W&M in the 2nd half, almost coming back from a DD deficit.
This is a huge in-state rivalry, believe it or not, and JMU is in an absolutely must win situation tonight and I expect the inside/outside tandem of Bowles and Wells to take over tonight. I also like the situation tonight, as JMU is coming off of a hard fought win over Radford where they finally showed me that they can win a close game while W&M couldn't hold a halftime lead and lost in front of a huge home crowd. Disappointing losses in games of that type can linger for days in practice.
Drexel +10 (3 Units)
Granted they have been at home, this is a Drexel team that has really impressed my in their past 2 games. This is because they have began to play a more complete game on the offensive end and with the emergence of the 3-ball, primarily by freshman Chris Fouch, they can climb back into this low-scoring game if they need to. Also, last time they played Drexel was without Leon Spencer, who can be a monster on defense. I know NE is a beast at home, but this is a huge sandwich game between VCU last weekend and ODU this weekend. With the pace of this game almost expected to be a grinder, 10 points is way too many.

I'll gladly take this angry VCU team to lock down on defense against Towson. Even though Towson will probably have Troy Franklin back and 1 or 2 other players, they know that they don't have the guns to run with VCU and keep up. No chance, VCU will wear down Towson on the inside with Sanders and their guard play will wear down the Tigers as the game moves on.
Delaware / Mason Under 134 (2 Units)
Not sure why the line climbed so much, probably due to what GMU has done lately in terms of scoring. But i know that Coach Larranaga likes to get it done with solid team defense, and they have gotten away from that lately on the road. With a few days of practice, I expect GMU to slow this one down and play their game and Delaware will not score much over 50.
