Amazing last night how Auburn came back after not scoring for the first 12 minutes of the 2nd half and being down 25 pts!!!!
UPDATE THRU 1/25 11 - 2
FORDHAM +14.5 OVER Duquesne
ANALYSIS: This is the first game since I have been tracking this that I cannot find much compelling reason to back the RAMS.
FORDHAM has covered this number 5 out of the last 7 times they have hosted Duquesne. Statistically, they are fairly low on the totem pole with their only positive being offensive rebounding (86th) They have covered this number at home vs St. Johns (winning outright). They only lost to this number once at home vs TEMPLE.
Duquesne does sport a 9-2 ATS record but, when you look a bit closer they have only covered this number 3 times on the road (Hou Baptist, LaSalle and Bowling Green) The LOST outright at Robert Morris. Statistically, they are very strong with their one glaring weakness being defensive rebounding (290th). NOTE: Last night it was the rebounding disparity that let Auburn come back and cover.
CONCLUSION: While on the surface it looks like an easy win for Duquesne the reality is that Fordham does play tough at home and with the rebound differential should be able to stay within the number. I would not be surprised to see them lead at the half AND dare I say win it outright!
FINAL SCORE: FORDHAM 78 - Duquesne 75
GOOD LUCK TO ALL!!!!
This one scared me when I looked at it last night. Just thought RAMS could pull it off! GW covered and Citadel who I liked.
