BTB Betting Pick

The Fordham Rams are favored by 13.5 points against the NJIT Highlanders. Fordham scores 74.3 points per game, while NJIT scores 65.3 points per game. Given Fordham’s higher scoring and NJIT’s struggles on offense, taking Fordham to cover the -13.5 spread is a reasonable pick.

The over/under for the game is set at 144.5 points. Fordham’s games tend to be higher scoring due to their 68.3 possessions per game. NJIT’s lower offensive output suggests the game might not reach the total. Thus, taking the under 144.5 is a sensible choice.
