Analysis
Going to back Dayton in the Atlantic 10 final, as there's something sneaky about the Flyers that makes them very dangerous. I also think this is where the "can't beat a team thrice in a season" comes into play after VCU won the two regular-season meetings. Dayton has been playing some of its best basketball since mid-February, winning eight of its last nine games and covering six of them. And as good as VCU has been, it's split its last six ATS. With a trip to the dance on the line, I'm banking on the Flyers to fuel from yesterday's win over top-seeded St. Louis and challenge for this outright win.
