OC Dooley:“2 UNIT” COLLEGE LINETRACKER TOTAL (Xavier at Villanova UNDER 147’ in a 7:05 eastern tipoff televised on Fox Sports One cable): At most offshore locations the total for this contest opened at the 148-point plateau, so the slight drop in the spot during the late afternoon hours speaks volumes considering the situation. While Villanova has played “above” the total at a vicious current 10-1 clip and has reached 90 points twice in the most recent three outings, Xavier had played “over” the spot in SIX consecutive contests prior to the weekend when they finally snapped the pattern in what resulted in a 68-60 home loss. That game marked the LOWEST point total for Xavier since they moved up as a Big East Conference member and one of their guards Landen Amos is suffering from a knee injury. Here is a 67-PERCENT SYSTEM (66-33 the past five years with a total in the 140’s) which plays top level teams like Villanova who has won at least 15 times in a 20-game span (and a win percentage of at least 80) UNDER the total, in a battle between a pair of “winning” sides with above .500 records
