1*Iona/Sacred Heart Over 150.5
Neither defense is great, and SHs is really bad. Both teams have a bit of pace to them offensively, and both love to shoot the 3 ball, and do it well. They only played once earlier this year in an Iona 81-69 win, but that was 3 months ago.
1* James Madison Dukes -1.5
They have the advantage of having played a game in this gym last night, and I think they are the better team. They were on a heater until the heartbreak loss in the finale to Coastal, and they made short work of Louisiana yesterday. Southern Miss' offense is terrible, and against this Dukes D that has been playing so well, I don't think they can hang. JMU won the only match up by 8 @ Southern Miss.
1* East Carolina Pirates +9.5
The Pirates have been great at home. Maybe not in the W column, but they've played the top teams in the league really tough. They've covered this number in every home game in conference play. And now add in that they have to win out to even play in the AAC tournament. Currently on the outside looking in. Tulsa is good, but a long way from home, on their second straight roadie, before heading home for senior night. I like the desperation of the Pirates to keep this close.
1*American Eagles +1.5
Immediate revenge for the Eagles here as they lost the finale @ home to BU by 3. American won on the is floor back January, and does it again tonight. They know what they have to do defensively, and take away the 3pt line. If they can do that, they will win this game.
1* Bucknell Bison +14.5
Two things. That's a lot of points in a tournament game. And Bucknell was the one seed in the is tournament last year, and lost to this Navy team. The Bison have a couple starters back from that team. I'd hope they leave it all on the floor tonight, cause this is it for them. They don't win the game, but I think they can keep it to a dozen.
Later games coming
