Today's NCAA Basketball Picks:
Game: Iona at Saint Peter's (7:00 PM Eastern)
Pick: 3 units on Saint Peter's +2 (-110) (risk 3 to win 2.7)
It is tough to back a team favored on the road that has gone 4-27 away from home in their last 31 games, especially when two of those games were by two points. The other two were over teams from lower conferences- both with losing home records. Saint Peter's has been beaten up by the top half of the conference, but has played Loyola - MD tough, beat Canisius and went to OT against Fairfield at home. This is a very winnable game for the Peacocks and we expect them to put one in the win column tonight.
Game: Columbia at Yale (7:00 PM Eastern)Pick: 3 units on Columbia +7 (-110) (risk 3 to win 2.7)
Columbia is in a familiar role as they have come to Yale as an underdog nine times in the last 10 years, covering seven of the nine while winning four of them outright. The Lions haven't shot as well as they are capable, but they have hit an amazing 73.2% of their free throws which will help them stay close in this one. Yale has had trouble on the defensive end which could allow Columbia to breakout of their shooting woes. Yale is giving up 47% from the floor and an equally bad 38% from behind the arc. These teams are closer than this pointspread, and Columbia has come in here and won as an even bigger dog than this. If they knock down some 3's they have a chance to steal this one.
Game: Fairfield at Canisius (7:30 PM Eastern)Pick: 3 units on Canisius +7 (-110) (risk 3 to win 2.7)
Canisius comes in with a horrible 3-17 mark. They have been blown out by virtually every team on the road, and all the good teams at home. The difference here is they have held their own against the sub-.500 teams, losing to Manhattan by four, and even pulled an upset of Niagara and beating all the others. Fairfield isn't playing much better. They have struggled on the road against some pretty poor teams. They needed OT to get past 4-16 Saint Peter's, lost to 5-17 Saint Francis - NY, and lost by 15 points to 8-15 Iona. This is a lot of points for a poor road team that has played ugly on the road against some pretty bad teams, so we will back Canisius here.
Results: 2-1
