Saint Louis 73, Rhode Island 63

Against the spread (ATS)
SAINT LOUIS -8.5 (+100) is laying a heavy number, but SLU will on its home floor and a good bet at even-money. The Billikens are just 1-4 ATS across the past five, but the trends point to the favorite and home team posting the cover in this series. Plus, the sub-.500 Rams aren’t exactly crushing it against the number either, going 4-7 ATS over the previous 11.
Over/Under (O/U)
The lean is to the UNDER 138.5 (-110). URI has hit the Under in five straight, going for 63 or fewer points on offense in four of the previous five. The Over is 8-3 in SLU’s 11 games overall this season, but the Under did cash in its most recent win over the Bonnies, and the Over/Under has split 2-2 in its past four.
