GAME: Rhode Island Rams vs. Stanford Cardinal 9:30 PM EST
RATING: 5* (#743) Rhode Island +5
The Stanford Cardinal play host to the Rams of Rhode Island on Sunday night with tip set for 9:30PM EST. This is a second round contest in the NIT featuring teams that have not met since their Elite 8 matchup seventeen years ago. The Rhode Island Rams have the second lowest opponent three-point percentage in the nation they only allow opponents to average 26.9 percent from behind the arc. The Tree on the other hand allows their opponents 37.6 percent shooting from triple territory. Our BTPR Index projects a point advantage of 1.13 points. The BBMM projects a point differential of 6.37 points with a line range of +4 to +6. The BSIM Matrix has Rhode Island with a 72.84 percent advantage against the spread in tonights contest. The Pace-Tempo Matrix has an offensive-defensive differential of 8.02 with a transitional average of 40.55 and a conversion rate range of 43.78 to 45.26 percent in tonights contest. On the tech side we see the Rams are 32-15 ats after going Over the total in their last game and have been installed as an underdog in the current contest. They are 26-9-1 ats if they are installed as a road underdog including 10-1 ats if they are a road underdog in the current price range. We want to Play ON CBB non-conference road underdogs in this price range coming off a su and ats win as a favorite with the game going Over the posted total. These road underdogs are 62-41-1 ats following that victory and cover. We will take the points with the Rams as they grab the straight up win against the Tree on Sunday. Rhode Island
GAME: Northern Iowa Panthers vs. Louisville Cardinals 9:40 PM EST
RATING: 5* (#736) Louisville Cardinals +3
The Northern Iowa Panthers had little trouble with the Wyoming Cowboys on Friday winning 71 to 54 in the process they were able to rest some of their starters in that game. On the other side we watched as the Louisville Cardinals struggled to get past a pesky UC-Irvine team eventually winning 57 to 55 and there was no rest for any of the Cardinals. In some cases this may be an issue but our Momentum and Pace Modules both show Louisville in positive territory and should not be negatively affected by the fact they didnae t rest any players in their last game. The primary modules all show Louisville coming away with the straight up victory over the Panthers on Sunday. The oddsmakers opened the Panthers at one-point favorites and the squares jumped on and forced the line up to three as of Sunday in most shops with a few -2.5 still out there. Our Reverse Momentum Index has the Panthers trending into negative territory while their opponent the Cardinals are firmly planted in positive territory. We know the Cardinals do a nice job in rebounding from an ats loss in their previous game in fact they are 16-5 ats coming off an ats loss as a favorite. If they won the game su but lost ats as a favorite they are 11-1 ats their next time out. The BTPR Index projects a point advantage of 2.86 points. The BBMM projects a point differential of 5.79 points with a line range of +3 to +5. The BSIM Matrix has the Cardinals with a 73.3 percent advantage against the spread in tonights contest. The Pace-Tempo Matrix has an offensive-defensive differential of 5.56 with a transitional average of 42.48 and a conversion rate range of 42.67 to 44.03 percent in tonights contest. We want to Play ON CBB non-conference teams coming off a pair of ats losses in their last two games. These play ON teams have amassed a record of 50-31-6 ats. If our Play ON team went Under in their last game and have now been installed as a non-conference underdog they are 80-48-1 ats. We want to Play AGAINST CBB post season road teams who are coming off two consecutive games in which the Total went Over because these teams are 28-50-1 ats in their next game. If our play AGAINST team is coming off a pair of su wins and the total going Over in both games now on the post season road they are a money burning 13-30 ats in their next game. With solid support from all our index averages as well as strong technical and situational support we will back the Pitino led Cardinals on Sunday night as they advance to the Sweet 16. Cardinals
