La Salle at Rhode Island

Rhode Island is 11-4 on the season but their current stretch, winning five of their past six, is more a product of a soft schedule than stellar play. LaSalle appears to have sorted out some issues, and their recent level of play may be the best we have seen from this team all season. The Explorers lost by just four points to a very good St. Bonaventure team, and their last time out they beat St. Joesph's as a sizeable dog, by 11 points. I think they are in a prime position to hang with a Rhode Island team that appears to be a bit overvalued right now. Make the play on LaSalle.
