Against the spread

OLD DOMINIE +31.5 (-105) is worth it to achieve this high number of points.

Yes, ODU lost to Buffalo in the regular season opener. And yes, Arizona hit Canisius in the opener. However, it just missed the cover against the Golden Griffins and won with 29 points as 34-point favorites. We should see a similar scenario play out in this case.

Top/Bottom

MORE THAN 160.5 (-110) it is meager, but I will play with a maximum of half a unit.

For Arizona, the Over connected to Monday’s Canisius route. With just 26 seconds left in the game, a Canisius layup pushed the total to an Over by just one point.

For ODU, it defeated the Over with an 83-82 loss to Buffalo by a total of 146 points. The Wildcats should be able to flirt with triple digits against the Monarchs at McKale Center.
