Penn State vs. Fordham
4:00 PM ET
While Penn State entered Sunday eighth in the country in points allowed on a per possession basis, much of their success has come against overmatched competition at home, all while ranking 216th in opponent 3-point shooting percentage. They now face a Fordham team with a true road win against Seton Hall and the Rams should have success on the glass against a Penn State team with only two players averaging more than 3.6 rebounds per game.
Fordham +15.5 (Greg’s Handicap Fordham +11.5)
Cornell vs. Iona
7:00 PM ET
While Cornell is running the same style as a season ago under first year coach Jon Jaques, the execution has not been the same, ranking 148th in points scored on a per possession basis and 253rd in 3-point shooting percentage. All the while, their defense went from 93rd in turnovers forced on a per possession basis last season to 174th this season.
Iona Moneyline +105 (Greg’s Handicap Iona -2.5 favorite)
Oregon State vs. North Texas
8:00 PM ET
The Mean Green entered Sunday 27th in points scored on a per possession basis at home this season and will face an Oregon State team that has yet to play a game outside of their home arena this season. The Beavers also haven’t faced a defense quite like North Texas, one that has allowed 68 points or fewer in every game this season.
North Texas -6.5 (Greg’s Handicap North Texas -10.5)
Maryland Eastern Shore vs. Arkansas
8:00 PM ET
While Maryland Eastern Shore had a clunker over the weekend against Illinois, this is still a vastly improved team from a season ago when they were 360th in points scored on a per possession basis. So far, they are averaging 7.8 more points per 100 possessions away from home this season and face an Arkansas team that hasn’t been stellar on offense, ranking 158th in points scored on a per possession basis entering Sunday. The Razorbacks are 271st in turnovers committed per possession.
Maryland Eastern Shore +35.5 (Greg’s Handicap Maryland Eastern Shore +27.5)
UNC Greensboro vs. Long Beach State
11:00 PM ET
Long Beach State is struggling in all facets currently with their defense entering Sunday 297th in the nation in points allowed on a per possession basis and have surrendered at least 72 points in all but one of their games against Division I competition. Both teams have allowed opponents to have clean possessions, each ranking 249th or worse entering Sunday in turnovers forced on a per possession basis.
UNC Greensboro vs. Long Beach State Over 134.5 (Greg’s Handicapped Total 143.5)
