77-76
St Joseph +2 (STJ has been scorching from behind the 3 in A10 play, something that VCU struggles to defend (9th in A10 3PGD). VCU shoots 2PG at a rate of 56.3, but STJ defends these shots well - 43.5. I worry about St Joe's ability to take care of the ball, but being at home they should minimize TOs. Like the home team and the points. Home teams in the A10 are winning S/U 67% of the time so I like my odds getting the points.)
UCLA -7 (The Bruins have been getting decimated by the physical play of the BIG. Mick Cronin admitted to this as much earlier this week. Luckily they get Iowa this week who couldn't (or wouldn't) defend if their lives depend on it. Being back home after a brutal east coast trip against Iowa's porous defense is what they need to get back on track. If UCLA loses this, it is going to be a long year in LA.)
Best of luck to all today.
