ATS: Saint Louis Billikens +1.5 (-110)
LOSS for -3 unit(s)
Virginia Commonwealth Rams at Saint Louis Billikens
Play On: St. Louis (Game 528)
Note: The Billikens host the Rams in Game Two of the CBI Tournament Championship Series with elimination looming should the lose tonight. We don't see that happening, not with St. Louis head coach Rick Majerus a sobering 123-10 SU at home in his college career against non-conference foes. Majerus is also 12-4 ATS as a home dog with St. Louis, including 2-0 SU and ATS when playing with same season loss revenge (Rams beat Billikens, 68-56 on Monday). In addition, St. Louis is 30-9 ATS as a home dog in games off a loss, including 10-0 ATS when playing with same season double-digit loss revenge. With VCU 0-4 SU and 1-3 ATS away versus .600 or greater opponents this season, look for this series to extend to three full games on Friday. We recommend a 3-unit play on St. Louis.
