A big game for Denver (7-4 Summit League), in a tight battle for third place and this is senior night - the home finale. Denver is 8-4 at home this season and has won seven of its last nine games, including a 75-67 win over Western Illinois on Thursday. The Pioneers are 4-1 ATS against a team with a winning record. Nebraska-Omaha has a winning record overall, but is on a three-game losing streak. You need defense to contend on the road but Nebraska-Omaha is last in scoring defense (74.4) in the conference, and #7 in both field goal percentage (.450) and three-point percentage defense (.343). Denver is 4-0 all-time against Omaha, including an 82-47 victory last season and a 74-60 win in Omaha last month. Denver shot a sizzling 62% in that game, nailing 10-of-19 threes and won easily despite getting 10 fewer trips to the line, so grab the home team on senior night.
