Not sure where you got your info. They are 4-11 at least according to info here at covers (not that that means it is 100% correct) They are an under team overall I wll agree

Rider is 13-5 over and gives upp 76 points a game while getting 73

Could be a close one!

Nropp any thoughts on this Clevend state game and Siena game. Was gonna drop $$ on money line in a parlay. Couldn't decide which would b a better pick. Siena is at home and have beat a lot of good teams their in the division While Clevend state needs this one to stay atop but aren't that solid away. Then again the opponent is last in the division. Any thoughts would b greatly appreciately.

Eh, it's a tough game. My initial thought was Yale. Was a bit shocked that it opened at a PK last night. Looked into it a bit more and Penn doesn't really have a bad loss on the season (maybe James Madison?). I'm not impressed with Yale. They're struggling to score, and the defense has been alright I guess. Just an awkward combination of a fast team not really producing on offense, yet the defense is working in a faster pace. Really awkward. Penn will shoot a bunch of three's, and Yale's guard defense is weak (which is what ultimately led to the scratch off).

I know, but these two teams haven't played yet on the season. This game should have some extreme giddy up to it. Rider's one of the fastest teams in the conference, and the offense has been pretty much unstoppable as of late. Their defense, however, is another story. They're tiny, and they give up a ton of points in the paint because of it. They try to beat teams in transition, and with the longball.

Actually, within the conference season, Loyola MD hasn't gone over the 140 mark once haha. I'm not too terribly concerned with that, though. They've played the easiest MAAC schedule thus far, resulting in some pretty big margins, and even the wins that didn't result in big margins, Patsos is the type of guy that takes the air out of the ball the last five minutes and goes into a 5 wide set. I've seen them numerous times this year, and their pace rating of currently ranking #250 is a bit false. They're fast when they want to be, just haven't had too many opportunities to get up and down.

Here's why this game should have some giddy-up. Rider plays a zone, a really, really, really weak one at that. Loyola MD's played four of them in a row, tonight makes #5. If you've seen Loyola MD play this year, they're one of the best teams in the country in terms of attacking the basket. They can attack from anywhere, even bring their big guys out for some iso sets, and they also rebound offensively extremely well. Because of the weak zone, Loyola MD should have a sh*t ton of opportunities to not only attack and score, but open up the perimeter as well. That's the Loyola side. As for Rider, they run like a chicken with its head cut off. And they continue to do it. And go some more. Their guards have some size (nice difference in this game), and they're really good at creating their own shot when they need, too. This game should ultimately have that "playground" feel to it.

IF this game slows down (I don't think it will), then Loyola's post players should still score quite a bit, and Rider will still have opportunities to get shots off b/c they can create. Loyola hasn't played a decent offense in about two weeks, so this should be a game that they're going to need to keep pressing and need to keep scoring rather than taking the stall approach.

I think you're safer with Cleveland State. Siena's got immediate revenge, but just a scary thought they were one of St. Peter's four victories on the year (and they only scored 44 on the Pete's guard pressure). Other interesting thing here is that the first time these two played, you had a young St. Peter's team who wasn't familiar facing a zone defense and they still won. They've had quite a bit of experience against that now, being that half of the MAAC utilizes the zone, so still young, but should have gained some experience.

nropp, what do you think about taking Cornell and the 15 @ Harvard?  they're winless on the road, but they've remarkably only lost by double digits twice all season, including single-digit losses @ Illinois, Penn State and Maryland. 

both teams play again tomorrow, which would seem to favor Cornell if Harvard believes they can win without fully exerting themselves.  is this line too big or do the matchups just favor a Harvard blowout?

FWIW: (Correct me if I added wrong.)

Season to Date: 170-154. (+3.65 units)

If betting one unit per game +16 units minus 1.54 juice = +14.46 units

Season to Date Leans: 154-156
