Vermont vs. Marquette

Vermont seems to win the America East every year and this season the Catamounts did it while returning only one starter from last year's 28-6 squad. They currently are on a 15-game win streak and breezed through the conference tournament winning and covering the spread in all three games and the Catamounts are 19-12-1 ATS on the season. Dylan Penn led Vermont with a 12.5 scoring average while shooting 51.8 percent from the field in the regular season and then he scored 23.3 per game in the America East tournament. Marquette has won nine straight, but it is just 5-5 ATS its past 10 games and the Golden Eagles are laying double digits in this one. Marquette has gone UNDER six of eight, including its past three games that went UNDER by an average of 23 points. Vermont allows 66.6 points per game and only 29.5 in the first half compared to 70.6 and 33.1 for the Golden Eagles. Both teams allow an identical 44.5 percent from the field. Vermont has stayed UNDER five of seven versus teams with .600 winning percentages and Marquette is 4-0 UNDER in that situation. The Golden Eagles have not covered the number their past four NCAA Tournament games. Take the points with Vermont, and play the first half and full game to stay UNDER.
