4-Unit Play. Take #786 Drexel (-2.5) over St. Joseph's (6 p.m., Thursday, Dec. 17)
This is a rivalry game in Philadelphia. I will go with the home team. Drexel is coming off a loss. That snapped a three-game winning streak and I think that they will get into the win column. St. Joseph's hasn't played since Nov. 27 because of COVID. This is just their third game of the season! I think that the Hawks will struggle in their first game in weeks. Drexel is 2-0 ATS in the last two meetings in this series and the favorite is 6-2 ATS in the last eight meetings. The Hawks are 2-6 ATS in their last eight road games and 1-4 ATS in their last four games as an underdog. Drexel is 4-1 ATS as a home favorite. Play the Dragons here.
3-Unit Play. Take #7892 Southern Illinois (-6.5) over North Dakota (2 p.m., Thursday, Dec. 17)
This Southern Illinois team is strong. They have won all three of their games. Last time out they upset a very good Murray State team 70-66 as a 7-point underdog. SIU is at home in this one and I think that they will continue to play well. North Dakota is just 1-5 SU on the season and has lost to teams like Delaware State. The Hawks are just 6-14 ATS in their last 14 games against a team with a winning record. Southern Illinois is 11-3 ATS in their last 14 home games and 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games as their favorite.
