4PM: Cornell +2 @ Lasalle - The Explorers are one of the teams quietly looking to challenge in the A-10 from the middle of the pack. Cornell has played a brutal slate early and have proven to be up for the challenge. The Red have already played Alabama, Seton Hall, St John's, Syracuse, UMass and St. Joe's. They went 4-2 in those games. Suffice it to say they will not be overwhelmed by Lasalle. Give me the Red in another resume builder.
7PM: Rhode Island -3 @ Drexel - I'll take another road team, this time the Rams of R.I. They have quietly built a 9-1 record, losing only @ VCU by 2. Granted, they have no marquee wins yet, but I wouldn't put Drexel on a marquee either. Gimme the Rams laying the three.
8PM: Northern Iowa @ Creighton -1 - The Jays have struggled mightily this season, while the Panthers of UNI are off to a 9-1 start that includes wins over Iowa State, Denver, Boston College, Siena and Iowa. Not a terrible slate. Creighton meanwhile is in unfamiliar territory, entering conference play with a sub-.500 record. However all 6 losses were to RPI Top 100 (5 in the Top 50) and all were on the road or a neutral court. I like Creighton to get home and use the opportunity to remind the MVC that the road to glory still passes through Nebraska.
Season Record: 26-19-1 ATS
