CBB: 1-0 +0.935
Game: Towson at LaSalle (Thursday 12/30 01:00 CET)
This one is a big missmatch and I can't see any other outcome than LaSalle blowing out a miserable Towson college. Hosts aren't worldbeaters of course but their 6-6 record is solid and they're definitely fired up, going 0-3 SU in last three games. They need a win a lot, so home game against 3-7 opponent is great opportunity. Generally speaking hosts are more athletic and will be dominating in the paint, will be rebounding a lot more, so adding they've got better general field goal percentage (high 47.4%), they'll be outscoring Towson since the beginning. What's worse, with injuries of Oglesby and Nwankwo, they're shorthanded and actually their bench have got no impact at all, which won't probably allow them for a backdoor cover. Williams have been red-hot of late and he's got great statistics so far (15.1 ppg and 8.1 rpg) and he played great even in latest losses (24 points and 14 rebounds in last one), so he should have another big day against weak Tigers frontcourt. Big difference between these two at the moment, so -13.0 ain't scary definitely.
Pick: 1 unit on LaSalle -13.0 @ 1.935
