Great under the radar game in the A10 here tonight...and a game Travis Ford and co. will have had circled for quite some time...and is a GREAT scheduling spot considering they've had ALL week off to prepare for Obi and the Flyers visiting the STL tonight...and the bar none leader to win the league is going to garner every opponent's best effort! Just a few weeks back St. Joe's competed their asses off for about 30 minutes tied or leading throughout before succumbing to what I have rated easily a top 5 offense in the country.
On the other side of Obi and Ibi, the Crutch and Trey...is Jordan Goofsin, who is a potential star in his own right...and despite UD being loaded...will be the 2nd best player on the court tonight.
St. Louis is excellent as a team getting to the line...not necessarily hitting the shots where they are the country's worst % team...but the chance at points with a dead clock is all we need with a total in this vicinity. I see the Billikens being able to stick with UD due to the importance of this game...both for March Madness as well as an ultimate ticket to the dance....and I certainly don't see that meaning first 1 to 60 points BY ANY MEANS. UD is 5-1 to the Over on the road this season...and Over 5 of 5 as just a single digit favorite or dog

Love this play as just the 3rd game each has played this month...with the direct previous being merely a "tune-up" game against a non-D1 school and direct previous to that...each team's best game...with Yale nearly knocking off suddenly not all that impressive UNC while Brown took Rhode Island flat out to the woodshed and never trailed defeating the Rams.
Now Brown is being highly disrespected here facing the cream of the Ivy League crop...given no chance tonight...and while I do think Yale wins this game...I think Brown gets theirs for sure and makes this a real battle...and a 75-70 type final and not a 73-61 type game.
