The Oakland Grizzlies are better than their 4-10 record this season, but that doesn't mean a whole lot in this one. The Grizzlies have played a challenging schedule over their last five games, losing all of them as expected. The issue is they have only recorded one win vs. Division-1 opponents by more than two points. Those games were against teams that they should have shown more against, but just didn't have it. Valparaiso is off to a great start at 13-2 on the season. The big win may be lacking but nevertheless, the Crusaders are playing over the line at 6-3-1 ATS, so they have not been an overrated team despite lacking the signature win. The logic here is that Oakland is not a signature win either, and this is the type of team they have been beating handily. Lay the points on Valparaiso.
