Friday’s Best College Basketball Bets: Davidson vs. VCU
Davidson vs. VCU
The VCU Rams have steamrolled Atlantic-10 competition this season. They're 13-2 in the conference and they've won three consecutive games by at least 16 points. Five of their victories during their current seven-game winning streak have been by 16+ points, with three wins of at least 29.
Things haven't gone as well for the Davidson Wildcats. They're just 6-9 in conference play and have lost three of their last four. However, they haven't lost a game by more than 10 points since January 21st, and only two of their nine conference losses are by double-digits.
The Rams are heavily favored in this game, as they should be. They're outscoring their opponents by an average of 15.8 points per game, and they've looked unstoppable in league play at times this season. But the Wildcats are better than their record suggests. They've lost a lot of close games. If the ball had bounced their way, they could be well over .500 in conference play. The Rams win today, but the Wildcats keep this closer than anyone expects.
Pick: Davidson +15.5 (-110)
