- Our 25* CBB Sun Belt Conference Underdog of the Year is on Troy plus the points versus Coastal Carolina at 7 pm et.
Troy lost their two games at Coastal Carolina last month by 90-81 and 70-65 scores. The Trojans covered the point spread in both those games after being double-digit underdogs on the road. Troy has covered the point spread in eight of their last twelve opportunities to avenge a loss. They get the Chanticleers for two games this week where they are 7-2. Troy outscores their opponents at home by 11.3 points-per-game. While they are 70.8 points-per-game at home, they are holding the visitors to only 59.7 points-per-game on 36.1% shooting. The Trojans have covered the point spread in four of their last five games at home. They also have covered the point spread in four of their last five home games getting up to 6 points as an underdog.
Coastal Carolina ended a three-game losing streak on Sunday with a 65-55 victory at Georgia Southern. But the Chanticleers have only covered the point spread in four of their last sixteen games after a victory. They did cover the 6-point spread against the Eagles but they have only covered the point spread twice in their last twelve games after a point spread victory. They are just 1-5 on the road. They have only covered the point spread twice in their last seven road games against teams who are winning at least 60% of their games at home. Coastal Carolina has not covered the point spread in their last five road games when favored. The Chanticleers have not been reliable favorites anywhere as they have only covered the point spread once in their last six games as a favorite. Take Troy plus the points.
Good luck - Team Del Genio.
