Fordham at Dayton picks and predictions
Prediction
Dayton 74, Fordham 63
Moneyline
Not much of a real option on either side of this price gulf. PASS.
Against the spread
Fordham is 3-0 ATS across its last 3 games at UD Arena, and 4-2 ATS on the road this season.
Dayton has had some off shooting performances from 3-point range of late. Fordham has been a solid road team and is a candidate for upside regression in its 3-point percentage-allowed numbers.
UD plays at a slow pace, making this an eclipse of this spread a tall order.
BET RAMS +14.5 (-102).

Over/Under
The Under is 4-2 across the last 6 series meetings. The Under has cashed 5 times across the last 7 Fordham games, and it is 13-7 in UD's A-10 contests, according to Oddshark.com.
UD habitually runs the shot clock down to the final ticks, and at the other end the Flyers do a great job forcing low-percentage mid-range attempts.
The Rams have fast tempo numbers overall but have been on a slowdown over recent weeks.
Consider a partial-unit play on the UNDER 139.5 (-108).
