Anyone know why Northeastern is favored and/or why I shouldn't take Santa Clara?

Northeastern is 0-4 on the road while Santa Clara is 4-3 at home. It's the opening round of the Cable Car Classic and I can't see Santa Clara going out in the first round of their own tournament.

It's the longest running holiday tournament in the nation. This is the 43rd annual, and Santa Clara has won it 15 times, most recently last year.

Obviously they are missing Kevin Foster but even without him they only lost to UNLV by 3 points and are 3-3 since he left.

Anyone see a reason why I shouldn't take Santa Clara in this matchup?

You make a damn good point. Im taking S.C plus 5.5 and buying the hook.

I don't see any reason not to! Best of Luck!

Don't be fooled by Northeasterns record of 3-7.They have played quality teams away from home only losing by 3 to Rhode Island and by 4 to Providence, defeated Utah State and Wright State at home,and they just won by 11 at SMU.Northeastern has a decent team and this is their six straight road game,but I think the lines right and I look for them to win and cover tonight.
