Virginia Commonwealth at Fordham

Premium Pick

It has been over a decade since VCU has finished a season with fewer than 24 wins, and at 14-4 on the season it appears that will continue. While they were once a team that was clearly under the radar, the continuation of success has a price to pay. That has left this team overrated, at least in the minds of the oddsmakers. The Rams have struggled the past five or six years when placed in the role of a double-digit favorite, often having to lay more than what is reasonable, and they have been 27-42 ATS since 2010 as a 10+ chalk. Two games back this Fordham team was a 15-point dog at Davidson and won, and they will have a better feel and belief taking on VCU. Play the points on Fordham.
