TXST
Texas State
-3.5
@
UL
Louisiana
Louisiana +3.5
WIN
Texas State's 3-9 road record and structural offensive limitations make them vulnerable to a Louisiana squad that plays faster and thrives at home.
WAG
Wagner
@
SFPA
Saint Francis
Wagner +1.5
WIN
Wagner's offensive efficiency and defensive discipline exploits Saint Francis's 6-game skid and 88 PPG allowed — Seahawks win outright on the road
CCSU
Central Connecticut
-3.5
@
CHST
Chicago State
Central Connecticut -3.5
LOSS
Central Connecticut's superior shooting, rebounding, and balance make them a value road favorite against a Chicago State team they already beat by 11 two weeks ago
ORL
Orlando Magic
@
PHX
Phoenix Suns
-1.5
Orlando Magic +1.5
Phoenix is spiraling with blowout losses while Orlando is surging — the 1.5-point line massively undervalues the Magic's current form and defensive identity.
MEM
Memphis Grizzlies
@
MIA
Miami Heat
-10.5
Memphis Grizzlies +10.5
Miami in classic letdown spot after blowout win while Memphis stays sharp in grinding role — double digits is too many for a team that can push pace
DAV
Davidson
-1
@
FOR
Fordham
Fordham -1.5
WIN
Fordham's defensive pressure and pace control neutralizes Davidson's explosive offense in a home grinder
WGA
West Georgia
@
QUC
Queens University
-11.5
West Georgia +11.5
WIN
West Georgia's superior shooting (43.5 FG% vs 35.7%) and half-court discipline should keep this within single digits against a Queens team whose recent scoring surge is unsustainable
SMC
Saint Mary's
@
WSU
Washington State
Saint Mary's -8.5
WIN
Saint Mary's has a massive interior advantage and elite defense to suffocate Washington State's limited offense on the road
SCU
Santa Clara
@
SF
San Francisco
San Francisco +7.5
LOSS
San Francisco's home offensive efficiency and Santa Clara's rust off a week layoff make 7.5 points too many in a rivalry game with sharp line disagreement across books.
USU
Utah State
@
NEV
Nevada
Nevada +5.5
WIN
Nevada's 13-2 home dominance and five-headed scoring monster keeps this tight against a Utah State team built for grind-it-out road wins, not blowouts
FSU
Florida State
@
CLEM
Clemson
-8.5
Florida State +8.5
WIN
FSU's surging offense and Clemson's 3-game skid make this spread inflated — take the points with the confident road dog.
NCCU
North Carolina Central
@
HOW
Howard
-12.5
Over 142.5
WIN
Howard's offense at home plus NCCU's five double-digit scorers should push this past 142.5 in an up-tempo MEAC clash.
WAKE
Wake Forest
@
VT
Virginia Tech
-4.5
Wake Forest +4.5
LOSS
VT has dropped five of six and can't score at home, while Wake's efficient offense and interior size exploits the Hokies' defensive cracks — take the points.
XAV
Xavier
@
BUT
Butler
-3.5
Butler -3.5
WIN
Xavier's 1-7 road record and offensive collapse away from home runs straight into Butler's 10-6 home dominance and defensive identity at Hinkle
NAVY
Navy
-9.5
@
ARMY
Army
Navy -9.5
WIN
Navy's balanced scoring, rebounding dominance, and 6-game win streak overwhelm an Army offense averaging just 55.9 PPG — lay the points on the road favorite.
ISU
Iowa State
-4.5
@
BYU
BYU
BYU +4.5
WIN
BYU's 14-2 home record and offensive firepower against Iowa State's shaky road form (5-3, faded at TCU) make 4.5 points too many in a line the books can't agree on
UCSB
UC Santa Barbara
@
HAW
Hawai'i
Hawai'i -3.5
LOSS
Hawai'i's elite home record (14-2) and desperate bounce-back spot trumps UCSB's road struggles — books underpricing the venue and motivation edge.
IDHO
Idaho
@
SAC
Sacramento State
Sacramento State +3.5
LOSS
Idaho is 1-4 in true road conference games and Sacramento State is 9-3 at home — the line undervalues the Hornets' fortress and Idaho's road struggles.
CIN
Cincinnati
@
KU
Kansas
-10.5
Cincinnati +10.5
WIN
Cincinnati's six-day rest advantage and improved road form (29-point win at K-State last road trip) plus defensive pace makes this a grind-it-out game where Kansas wins but doesn't cover the inflated
ECU
East Carolina
@
CLT
Charlotte
-5.5
East Carolina +6.5
LOSS
Fading Charlotte's four-game skid and inflated home number — ECU's tempo and Riley's scoring give them live dog equity at +6.5.
RUTG
Rutgers
@
MINN
Minnesota
-7.5
Rutgers +7.5
LOSS
Rutgers' recent offensive surge and Minnesota's tendency to play rock fights makes 7.5 too many points in a game that stays close throughout
UTC
Chattanooga
-4.5
@
CIT
The Citadel
The Citadel +4.5
LOSS
The Citadel gets 4.5 at home after already beating Chattanooga on the road two weeks ago — the revenge narrative is overpriced and the Mocs' road defense is a liability on short rest.
NHVN
New Haven
@
FDU
Fairleigh Dickinson
-2.5
Fairleigh Dickinson -2.5
LOSS
Fairleigh Dickinson's 8-5 home dominance and three-headed scoring attack should overwhelm New Haven's road-weary offense in a low-possession grinder
UTEP
UTEP
@
NMSU
New Mexico State
UTEP +7.5
WIN
UTEP already beat New Mexico State two weeks ago and getting 7.5 in the rematch is too many points for a team that proved they can score with the Aggies
L-MD
Loyola Maryland
@
COLG
Colgate
-8.5
Over 151.5
WIN
Colgate's defensive collapse and Loyola's balanced scoring attack set up a pace-up affair that clears 155 comfortably
KC
Kansas City
@
NDSU
North Dakota State
-18.5
Kansas City +18.5
LOSS
Kansas City's shooters keep this closer than the 18.5-point spread suggests against a methodical NDSU team that doesn't blow the doors off opponents.
HARV
Harvard
@
COR
Cornell
-4
Harvard +4
WIN
Harvard's discipline and Lin's playmaking keep this within a possession as Cornell's home inconsistency against quality Ivy opponents creates value on the dog.
PENN
Pennsylvania
@
YALE
Yale
-9.5
Yale -9.5
LOSS
Yale's home dominance and Penn's 3-8 road struggles make this a comfortable double-digit cover in a revenge spot
LIU
Long Island University
-2.5
@
MERC
Mercyhurst
Long Island University -2.5
LOSS
LIU's 13+ rebounding advantage and superior road form make them the play against a Mercyhurst team that's lost 4 of 6 and just dropped a home game to Wagner.
LEM
Le Moyne
-2.5
@
STO
Stonehill
Under 137.5
LOSS
Stonehill's defensive blueprint from the first meeting holds; both teams grind this into a rock fight that stays well under the inflated total
