Monday, January 20, 2020—141 Yale -21½ -110 (Heritage)
12 pm EST/9 am PST—A 23-point Road chalk? Sign me up Gump. Another too early tip for my taste, but y’all are living free in The Digital Age can and can just bet with your Smartphones with a click or a push and little concern. Here, Ivy League side Yale (12-4 SU, 12-2 ATS) heads to Burr Gymnasium in Washington, DC to face Howard (2-17 SU, 4-13 ATS) on a Black Out MLK Day
Monday and a Non Conference mismatch where the Bulldogs should lay the
sledgehammer on the Bison.
KenPom.com ranks Paul Atkinson (16.2 ppg), Azar Swain (15.1 ppg), Jordan Bruner (13.0 pppg, 9.5 rpg) and Yale #57 with Howard at #349 of 353 D-I teams with only Central Connecticut (1-18 SU), Maryland Eastern Shore (2-17), Mississippi Valley State (2-15) and my favorite Rats, Chicago State (4-17, L11 SU). The Total here opened at 137 to 137½ at the major Offshore sportsbooks.
The Trends show Yale to be 9-2 ATS on the Road with Howard 2-5 ATS at Home in DC, 13-3 ATS L16 on the Road, 35-16-1 ATS L52 overall, 45-19-2 ATS L66 as a Favorite and an impressive
42-9 ATS the L51 as a Road Favorite (82.4%). Yale average 75.0 ppg and give up only 61.9 ppg (+12.9 ppg) while the Bison average 68.4 ppg and allows 81.7 ppg (-13.3 ppg), a big reason why Pomenroy has MEAC side Howard (L7 SU) so low.
This may be the first meeting ever between these two and backing the Bulldogs in the First Half market may be a good way to start your betting week as Yale could be covering the game spread already after the first 20 minutes. Don’t overthink this.
