Providence opens the 2015-16 season at home against Harvard on Saturday at 7pm. The game will be televised on Fox Sports Networks. Click here to see what channel that might be for you. The Crimson were an NCAA Tournament team last season but they lose 5 seniors from that team, including leading scorer Wesley Saunders. Tommy Amaker’s bunch also took another hit this summer when leading returning scorer and assist-man Siyani Chambers tore his ACL.

Vegas seems to agree, at least based on what this line is against a largely inexperienced Providence team.
Opening Line: Providence -10
Stay tuned for updates as the line moves.
