TOM STRYKER’S FREE BASKETBALL SELECTION SATURDAY, MARCH 6TH
#650 W KENTUCKY (-7) over Old Dominion at 5 PM EST
Off last night’s 71-69 home loss to ODU, look for head coach Rick Stansbury’s troops to come out blazin’ early on Saturday evening. With a victory, the Hilltoppers will grab the C-USA East Division crown and the top overall record in the league and they are not going to be denied.
Since the start of the 2017-18 season, Western Kentucky has played excellent basketball posting a solid 84-41 SU and 69-53 ATS record. In this run checking in without confidence off a straight up loss, WKU tightens up to a lucrative 27-11 SU and 25-12 ATS including a reliable 15-7 SU and 18-4 ATS in this spot provided its opponent enters off a straight up win. With those two parameters live and the Hilltoppers running inside the friendly confines of E.A. Diddle Arena, this team trend jumps to a spotless 10-0 SU and ATS.
ODU is playing well right now. The Monarchs enter this contest on a 6-1 SU run and off four consecutive straight up wins. However, when coming off a straight up underdog victory, Old Dominion has been at its financial worst posting a pitiful 22-37-1 ATS tally in its next game including a woeful 12-24-1 ATS if it is running against a conference foe. With those two parameters in play and the Monarchs fighting a foe that holds a team won/loss percentage of .530 or better, this team trend crashes to an ugly 3-15 ATS.
After blowing a 13-point lead in last night’s loss, the Hilltoppers will be sure to extend the margin in a big way in this right back revenge battle. Take Western Kentucky. Thanks and best of luck, Tom.
