Thursday: Fairfield -5.5

[superbook]

Yesterday: 0-1

YTD: 23-12-2

Slipping backward...should have made Manhattan my play of the day...L-M was there but missed the cover by a basket.

Stags were at Duke on Tuesday nite and travel down the road to play Elon. Fairfield coming off big losses to Michigan and Duke should turn it around at Elon, which is at the bottom of the Southern Conference. Gai and Thomson should be too much inside for Elon.

Fairfield is 4-1-1 ATS on the road with the only ATS loss at Duke in their last outing.

Good luck.

Coming off huge losses in the role of a dog is somewhat different than coming off a huge loss in the role of a favorite.

The underdog is not expected to win.

The favorite is.

I realize Elon was on the third leg of a three game road trip, but a 58-81 loss/no cover as 11 pt. road chalk @ APP STATE is still a very sub par performance.

In their last 10 games, F'field has had three opportunities in the role of a favorite and has win/covers in all three outings. This is not an easy task.

Despite their last two outings, I think Fairfield has the proven credentials to cover this number.

for what it's worth... Tim O'Toole was pissed about his teams performance against duke.. expecting the guys to play much tougher.. even his bench against the devils bench at the end of the game. Seeing his frustration makes me believe they will come out with much more passion and agression against lowely Elon. gl!

Super,
I really like this play as well, you have to like the better team with the best player on the floor, Deng Gai. Good luck,

Although there is no line out on the Manhattan and Niagara game for friday, do you think there is any chance that Niagara could pull off a upset?

last year i won several units playing on teams after they played and lost to duke.appreciate it if anyone could track that trend.it worked better with non-conference games.
