Fordham/Richmond Over 134.5 (-106) Bet $100 to collect $194 Get the best odds at FanDuel, click here to bet

We're going over to FanDuel for this one since they've got a number better than any other book on the planet. We've already seen Caesar's take this thing down and repost 136 (-110) on the over so I bet the others will start to follow suit. Obviously, we want to get the best number and price so if you can't play at Caesars, look into BetMGM who has a 135 hanging at the moment. Still, I'll just hold onto the FanDuel number since it's great at the moment.

Richmond vs. Fordham Prediction

Here's the thing about this game, it's actually a good one. Kind of. At least for the total's sake. For starters, we have the worse team playing at home which I like for overs. That's not enough though. We also want the slower-paced team to be the one that's worse as well as at home. We have that here in Richmond. It's a classic "chip and a chair" situation for these kids which is all we can ask for. If these Spiders can get into the 60s today, we should be gold.

Why is the 60s a good number? Because Fordham could approach the 80s today. They've done so in their last three games and people I respect are actually calling them a "wagon". That's big. I know they don't have the most efficient offense, but when you run at the nation's 52nd-fastest pace, you can have some off possessions. All we need to happen here is for these teams to stay borderline close and we're home. Still, if that doesn't happen, we could get home by Fordham dropping 80 again. Either way, this is the most fun way to start a Sunday.
