Atlantic Sun GOTY:
Florida Gulf Coast -3 -120
I have had this game in mind since last season as I hoped a line would be available when they would meet again. This is a huge revenge spot for the Eagles as Stetson beat them in the Atlantic Sun Conference Tournament Finals which not only ended a 41 game conference winning streak, it also left them out of the NCAA Tournament despite an impressive 27-7 record. For the record it was complete BS too as they had impressive wins against the ACC & SEC (Virginia & LSU).
Historically the Eagles have owned this series winning 11 of the 14 meetings since 2007-2008 with just about all of them being by double digits. This should be a 10+ win in what is not only the better team but more prepared considering the grueling out of conference schedule they have played compared to Stetson's.

Historically the games between these two tend to be close & when it comes to UMBC, their losses in it have only once been by a number over 18.
