4 Unit Play. Take St. Bonaventure +14 over Dayton
10-4 last week overall in Hoops (71%).
7-4 this week overall in Hoops (64%).
Going for 5th straight winning week in NBA today.
We hit up the Atlantic 10 just like we did when Temple got it done easily over St. Louis. In much the same way, I look for St. Bonaventure to hang inside the number here against Dayton. St. Bonny has a lot of good things going with their program currently. For starters, this team has a power ranking within the top 200. Furthermore, they are an 11 win team this year as they sit at 11-7 which is a stark improvement from years before. And, the kicker, is that they are 7-0 on the road. This team has gone on the highway and are undefeated. So, the confidence is certainly not lacking. St. Bonny went on the road to defeat Rutgers earlier this year, defeated Marist by nearly 20 on the road and most recently defeated a top 120 team in Richmond on the road by 4. Now, this team comes off an ugly 20 point loss to Xavier at home. That's great for us. This team undoubtedly has the ability to step up on the road, comes off an ugly loss at home, and has the ability to play big named teams on the road and be competitive such as defeating a conference foe in Richmond Outright on the road. Dayton is good. But, Dayton swept this team last year and will not be expecting a barn-burner which this team will give them today. Thus, St. Bonny has revenge too - tack that on as another plus for us as they will undoubtedly get up for this game as they have several returning starters. Last year, St. Bonny lost to Dayton by 5 at home and 7 points on the road - a total of 12. So, in two games last year when they were younger they lost by a combined total of 12 points and today, they are getting 14 points in total overall. Dayton is 2-5 ATS of late and they have not been blowing teams out at home or on the road for that mater. And, yes, they are 14-2, but for them to be laying a point spread of -14 when they do not have a track record of big blowout wins, clearly signifies a great shot at St Bonny losing by 5-8 here. Remember, Dayton only defeated conference foe Fordham (team outside the top 300) by 1. Bonnies are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 road games and the Friars are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 contests as favorites.
