567 Canisius -2.5(-110) Bookmaker.com vs 568 Manhattan triple-dime bet
Analysis: This spread opened too short as Canisius is a much better team than Manhattan. The Golden Griffins are 8-4 in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference while the Jaspers are 5-7 in league.
Canisius is in good form, too, winning five of its last six. The Golden Griffins are 10-4 ATS following a victory. Manhattan defeated St. Peter's in its last game, but has dropped 10 of its past 14 games. The Jaspers are 3-7 ATS following a victory.
Canisius won't be taking Manhattan lightly either as the Golden Griffins won by just four points at home in the first meeting between the two teams as 7 1/2-point favorite on Jan. 17.
This has been a road team series with the visitor covering the past eight times. Canisius is 5-1-1 ATS during its last seven visits to Manhattan.
My sources who pay attention to this conference rate Canisius nearly 10 points better than Manhattan on a neutral court based on overall talent and current form. So this is a very cheap price to lay.
