Notre Dame beat UMass 81-68 on Saturday in the game right before Providence’s win over Florida State. Despite this bracket not being a traditional advance and play the winner bracket the two winners from Saturday will square off.

The line opened with Providence as a 2.5 point underdog against Florida State. Kenpom.com has Providence winning the game by 1, 72-71.
Providence’s season opener against Albany had a late line of PC -14 and O/U 140. Providence won by 4 and the total was well under the 140 number at 124. The Friars’ second game of the season opened with a line of PC -21.5 and O/U of 137. Providence won the game by 21 and total again came well under the number at 111. So the mini-trend that has started off this season is the Friars are 0-2 ATS (some place might have had the Binghamton line at -21 so a push is possible) and they are 2 for 2 on the under hitting.
I’m not sure where the O/U will open for this one but I get the sense that this game may be a rock fight and end up with both teams in the 60’s.
Check back here for updates to the lines as they move.
UPDATE 5:39pm: Line has moved to PC +1.5 and the moneyline has been taken off the board. Early money coming in on the Friars?
