Dayton (15-9, 7-4 A-10) had a two-game win streak snapped on Saturday, falling to St. Bonaventure in a 68-59 setback.

Adrian Baldwin had a monster night with 37 points on 80% shooting from the field in the victory.

The Pick: Under 130

VCU edged Dayton 63-62 in their previous meeting last month and this matchup should be similar. In particular, both teams have been strong on the defensive side of things with VCU ranking 22nd in adjusted efficiency on defense while the Flyers are ranked 52nd. Expect a tight contest where both teams scrap it out to make it to 60. Take the under.
