Fairfield vs. Siena
Siena is a top 65 team here hosting Fairfield. This tema showed great guts defeating a top 100 team in St. Josephs on the road. Siena plays a top 140 team in the Fairfield Stags at home. Siena defeated top 240 Holy Cross on the road by double-digits as well. Siena has done very well against teams ranked 100-150 defeating them by 10-20 points on average at home. Thus, the spread at -11.5 is about right. Fairfield covered against Uconn in their last game losing by 20 points and falling just inside the cover and not to mention that the Stags also defeated Holy Cross convincingly on the road. This is a conference game and Fairfield beat this team by 1 point on the road last year 53-52 avenging their own loss earlier that year as they won outright as 9.5 dogs. This should be a tight game and fairly close to the cover at the end of the day.
Rider vs. Iona
Rider beat this team at home in overtime last year by a score of 68-63. I would lean on Iona here to get that big dose of revenge as they are a top 200 team facing a top 225 team and I have them winning by 6-8 points here but Rider comes off their own tough loss to Drexel and looks to bounce-back. Also, 70% are on Iona as well. Nevertheless, a lean on Iona here at home off their road loss to South Florida.
Villanova vs. Marquette
Villanova is a top 30 team in the power rankings facing against Marquette on the road. Note, that this game is on ESPN. Over 70% are riding Villanova as they are feeling the love of going 9-0 at home thus far as this will be a nationally televised afternoon game. Marquette beat this team by 13 at home and 10 on the road last year. Marquette has been solid this year including defeating Wisconsin at home and defeating Temple by 17 at home as well. I would lean on Marquette for the fact they are the lower ranking team favored here which typically bodes well for the team ranked lower, this game is on ESPN and that Marquette is at home, but Villaova is older and they have revenge from not defeating this team at all last year and over 70% are riding the jock straps of Marquette here at home.
South Alabama vs. Florida Atlantic
Be careful with this game as Florida Atlantic just comes off a tight game with Kentucky on the road off of an extended road trip. Although South Alabama did bet top 75 Southern Miss on the road in OT they have generally struggled on the road against even teams ranked outside the top 200. The spread is also eerily low, a lean on the Fla Atlantic as the home dog here.
