Utah Tech 0-7 on away games this year but some of those were against some tough teams - Utah St., Boise St., Utah, Oregon, Wyoming. Their other 2 away games they lost by a margin of 3 in each game - Montana, Portland St. Both teams have a better offense than FIU but FIU does have the better defense. Looking at FIU games at home against similar teams, they won 1 game by 5 and lost the other. They haven't won a game on December 30th since 2018 (I'm from Miami and I know how lazy people get around the holidays). Utah Off SOS 66, Def SOS 122. FIU Off SOS 229, Def SOS 324
Utah Tech +5.5
Utah Tech +195 ML .5U
Bryant U @ Grand Canyon
I think this line is too large in favor of Bryant U. GC - Of their 8 home games, they lost 1, 4 were within 10pts, 2 were way above the spread here but against NR and #361, and 1 win was against Norfolk St. by 18. Of their away games Bryant has lost 5 - of those, one was to St. Bonaventure and the other Chatanooga (-15,-8 margin). Both of those offenses better than GC. The Bonnies also have a better defense and they only won by 15. I see Bryant U covering here.
Bryant +12.5
LMU @ Wash St.
This one stood out instantly. WSU has won every home game by this spread. LMU has lost every away game by this spread.
Washington St. -8.5
Medium Leans
Over 154.5 Columbia/Rutgers - 8 out of 10 of Columbia's games this year have had someone score in the 80s. Rutgers both games at home against similar teams have both gone over 160.
Rutgers -11.5 - Columbia has some of the worst SOS on both sides. They did beat Villanova but they had so many close games against #300+ teams and they lost by 15 at Albany. Rutgers is 6-0 at home - 92 Off SOS, 40 Def SOS. Coming off a loss to Princeton I see them coming out to play here.
SE Louisiana +18 - SLU's biggest loss of the season was to Miss St. by 21 -- better team than McNeese. McNeese largest win of the year was New Orleans by 25 (similar offense rank to SLU but SLU has better D and actually shoots the ball better).
Low Leans
Akron @ Princeton
I've been bouncing back and forth between the two here. Princeton with the better offense but can't rebound for shit. They make up for it by not committing a lot of turnovers. Akron recently lost to Yale by 16, a team with similar offensive stats to Princeton - Yale defense slightly better so I see why the -5.5 line. Akron 0-2 on the road but Princeton has not covered a -5.5 line at home except for against Nazareth. Too close to call for me. What I like more is the under.
Under 156
Live Watch (All depend on team performance)
Cornell -8 or below

Should've taken more caution with the mountain team playing at 10AM their time. They came to play the 2nd half but it was too late.
Leans hit but didn't call them here in the thread as official. Akron under, rutgers -11.5, and over in the rutgers game. So congrats to whoever played them and sorry for not calling them in here.
Still waiting for Bryant and Washington St. I have not played SE Louisiana yet. I might post a few more plays here in a bit

Damn that was a shitty day. Sorry to anyone that was tailing. Had all my plays been posted as official plays I'd still be positive about .20 of a unit.
