Pick Ideas

Angles drawn from the matchup analysis above and refreshed as the news changes. They are a separate read from the LineCrush pick for this matchup, so the two can land on different sides.

Consider the under only at a generous number

Consider an under only at 140 or higher; pass below that number given the small sample and mixed scoring results.

Be price-sensitive on Binghamton

Consider Binghamton’s moneyline only at -200 or better from a verified sportsbook; otherwise, pass rather than chase a steep price.
