12/19:
St johns -7. 2.14 to win 2.
their defense has been mighty impressive. Rank 8th in adjusted efficiency, 11th in effective fg%, and 5th in block%. Their length is gonna be a problem for st marys. This is a long travel for the gaels who are 2-4 ATS in their last 6 on the road. This will definitely be their toughest test of the season. St johns is 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 overall and look like a dangerous team. St marys defense is also very soft. Theyre 170th in adjusted efficiency and 313 in TO %. They do not force mistakes.
Cal -6. 2.82 to win 2.5.
eastern washington got a big win at indiana.. but other than that i have not been impressed with them. Their defense is soft as baby wipes ranking in the bottom in almost all KenPom categories. Eastern washington is also in the middle of a long road stand... all that traveling easily catches up to you. And being matched up against a team with fire power like Cal is not good on tired legs. Cal is 6-3 ATS in their last 9 at home and even without bird i see them covering this modest #.
