#pcbb Opening Line – PC @ Marquette -5.5

1 Comment

My numbers have this game at pick ’em but that doesn’t take into account home court advantage and other factors like injuries, momentum, tired legs, etc. Even still, Marquette being 5.5 point favorites seems a bit high. I have a feeling this line will drop down to around 2 or 3 points by the time these teams tip-off tomorrow night.

Providence 10-8-1 ATS 2-2 ATS Away
Marquette 7-11 ATS 2-6 ATS Home
