Tuesday 0-3 -9.39 Units
Wednesday 1-1 -2.70 Units
Here are tonight?s selections:
(7) Virginia Commonwealth -10.5 -105
The Dukes' head coach Dean Keener, in his second year at the helm, is having a difficult time getting his new recruits and veteran players to buy into his program. James Posey, who was suspended for 13 games because he wouldn't finish sprints, will be back in action; however, game shape and fitting in with the system are questionable. Moreover, well liked Cavell Johnson, the team's 2nd leading scorer, was recently dismissed from the team; as a result, the Dukes got beaten at home by lowly Towson State January 7th to fall to 1-5 ATS over their last six games. The Dukes have little size in the low post and continue to be vulnerable on the defensive end (allow 78 points-per-game at home). VCU, which is well disciplined on the defensive end, should find their offense feeding off their defense. James Madison is a mere 4-11 ATS in there last 15 against a good defensive teams (allowing 64 points-per-game or less). VCU sports a 4-1 ATS mark in this series including a 70-43 pasting at James Madison on 1/31/05.
Good Day & Good Luck!
