    Analysis

    Always nice when you can stop at the first game of the night because you decently like it. KenPom has Boston U ranked 49 spots higher for this Patriot League matchup. The Terriers have reached triple-digit points multiple times in one season for the first time since the 1979-80 campaign. They swept this series last season. Lehigh is 2-8 away. It was picked eighth in the Patriot League and BU second. Junior Michael McNair totaled 57 points last week in wins for Boston U and earned PL Player of the Week honors.

    Analysis

    This is a huge rivalry game in the SoCon. Western Carolina is 5-10, but it should be noted the Catamounts played Duke, Cincinnati, Virginia Tech and Georgia in non-conference play. All three of their conference losses have come by five or fewer points. The Buccaneers come in undefeated in the SoCon, but they're just 2-4 on the road. Western Carolina, which leads the conference in offensive rebounding, has won four straight home meetings and seven of the past eight. I don't expect them to win this one outright, but this is too many points.

    Analysis

    I'm taking a shot with Missouri as a small home dog. I went against the Tigers on Saturday in Ole Miss coming off two emotional wins over Florida and Kentucky. They played pretty well overall though. The difference was Missouri shooting 50% from the free throw line, which is always an issue with one of the worst foul shooting teams in the country. I came into the year thinking Auburn might be a good road fade in SEC play. It's still early but the Tigers are 0-2 in true road games. Another factor is Auburn isn't a deep team, ranking 334th in bench minutes. That's always a concern against Missouri's aggressive style that can wear opponents down. I took +1.5. Bet Missouri up to -2.

    Spread
    Picked: Jan 14 @ 4:11am

    Analysis

    Things aren't going too well for Rider, which might have a case as the worst-shooting team in America. To wit: only four teams out of 361 shoot less accurately from the floor than the Broncs' 38.6%, and there isn't one team that shoots triples worse than Rider, whose at 24.7% from beyond the arc are bottom-of-the-barrel nationally, with second-worst East Carolina not even that close. The plight is reflected by All-Name soph G Flash Burton, who followed up his recent 27-point game vs. Fairfield by getting blanked on Sunday by Marist. Meanwhile, Iona has steadied since scoring just 38 in a recent lopsided loss vs. that same Marist, blowing out Niagara and Canisius last week while allowing just 50 ppg in the process. Play Iona

    PTS + REB
    Picked: Jan 14 @ 7:59am

    Analysis

    FanDuel. Collin Murray-Boyles is getting a chance to play extended minutes for the Raptors, who continue to deal with injuries in their frontcourt. The first round pick has cleared this line in 5/7 games he’s played at least 26 minutes, which includes 4 of the last 5 contests. He’ll face a weak Pacers front line - Indiana ranks 27th both in paint points and rebounds allowed.
