Duquesne vs Fordham ATS Pick: Duquesne -2½
The start of Atlantic 10 play was far from less than ideal for Duquesne. The Dukes started with five straight losses, which pretty much sunk all of the team’s college basketball predictions. However, Duquesne seems to have figured things out after that rough start.
Over the last nine games, right after losing five straight, Duquesne has only lost twice. Even against the spread, the Dukes have been good, covering in their six last games during this hot stretch.
On the other hand, Fordham has never found a foothold this season during conference play. The Rams have lost four straight and have only three wins over the last 12 games. That’s a big reason to favor Duquesne in college basketball picks, even though it is on the road.
Duquesne vs Fordham Over/Under Pick: Under 138½
The under for this game does seem to make a lot of sense in college basketball odds. In the first game, the line was set at 142½ and it hit the under.
On top of that, both teams are struggling to hit the over. Duquesne’s record regarding over/under betting over the last 10 games is 2-7-1, and Fordham is 4-6. Furthermore, both schools have two of the lowest-scoring offenses in the conference. The Rams are ranked 12th at 71.9 points per game and the Dukes are 13th at 71.7.
Player Prop Pick: Dae Dae Grant Over 17.5 points (-106)
Both teams have pretty lackluster offenses and there is no real star offensive player to speak of. However, Dae Dae Grant could have a solid offensive game. He is coming off a game in which he scored 31 points against Saint Louis, his third 30-point game of the season.
