OK, we're not really quite sure why this line is so low (which is never a good thing!) but after doing a bunch of research here, it appears the Sharps are taking the bait. Towson comes into tonight's game at 20-9 overall and they beat JMU 80-69 earlier this month, covering a 6.5 point line. Towson has won their last four games and also covered in each one of those wins. We always like to look at trend lines as we get towards the end of the season and there are LOTS of trends that point to Towson in this spot. Towson is 4-1 ATS against JMU over the last 3 seasons and the Dukes aren't exactly killing it in conference play. JMU is 6-8 in conference play and 4-9 ATS in those games. In their last 7 games, the Dukes are 1-5-1 ATS. Towson has shown a really good ability to play well on the road. The Tigers are 12-4 ATS in conference road games over the last 2 seasons. With all of these stats, we would obviously think this would be a bigger number, so that gives us a bit of heartburn. But we think this game will be tighter than the last one between these two, but in the end, Towson comes home with a victory. We are rolling with the road favorite here tonight. The Sharps say...
3 UNITS - TOWSON (-1.5)
