St. john’s wins basketball.

Brown wins men’s and women’s rowing. Go Bruno !

 
I hope we don't have a let down and we win this one easily.

Why would we have a let down.

SJU fav by 13

Most of the games Brown has played, has featured scores in the upper 60s/low 70s. That's not Virginia-like, but it's low by today's standards. It's probably by design. If so, the bettors probably feel they can only lose by so much.

BPI gives us an 83% chance for victory.
 
Yeah, I'm surprised by the line. BPI likes them, but their resume thus far isn't good. I guess our other recent cupcake games were against teams ranked in the 300's rather than 200's (like Brown), so that's why the line isn't 20+. Probably says more about us than them.
 
Another reason for "low" could be that after 10 games, folks see that CMA will "experiment" with his combinations to spread time and build confidence. This and Albany will be the last 2 possibilities before the schedule gets strong. Continues to be time for him to continue teaching and assessing

PS--expect another Free Fries" Game

I would have expected closer to 15 points.

Line moved to -11
 
Remember those lines are all based on getting 50/50 betting.

Yep, they're betting against sju
 
Don’t see a letdown by this team in terms of effort. CMA will see to it that we don’t look past Brown, so we’ll come to play. Just a matter of how the ball falls and turnovers. I expected a much closer game against Columbia. I expect a close game tonight. SJU by 8. Therefore, bet the house on SJU to cover.
 
Well now we know why the line went down. The wise guys got to the refs. 2 crap calls to put Figueroa on the bench a minute in
