We're at Caesars here because they are the only book on the planet (probably) with Northern Kentucky as an underdog. That's pretty crazy. Some books like FanDuel and PointsBet have already moved this to Northern Kentucky -1.5 (-105). I'm not saying I know everything, but I do know that if every single book in the world has a team as a favorite but one book has them as a dog, I'll side with the majority. Feels right.

Robert Morris vs. Northern Kentucky Prediction

Not only are we about to get a great price, but it makes sense from a basketball standpoint too. This one is all about defense. In Northern Kentucky, we're getting a team that has almost cracked the top 100 in the country in defensive efficiency. That's pretty good given the fact that we're talking about Northern Kentucky here. They're not exactly a powerhouse. Still, they've managed to go 14-9 so far which is good for fourth in the Horizon league. What's even better is they've managed a .914 defensive efficiency over the last three games so they are locking in.

On the Robert Morris side, I'm not saying they are bad because they aren't. They just aren't good. They've won three straight games but all of those games have been against bottom-feeder programs. Even with that said, their offensive efficiency number is still 255th in the country. I don't expect either team to run away with this, but at this number and price, I like Northern Kentucky given the profiles of each team. If anything, this number should be flipped. I think we're talking about a wrong team-favored situation here, people. This could be the greatest bet of our lives.
