College Basketball Betting Picks: Princeton vs. Rutgers: December 10th 2008

Free College Basketball Pick: Princeton +4.0 (-110) - Wed December 10th 2008 7:00p
It is not very often that we would back an Ivy League school vs. a Big East team, but the Princeton Tigers look like dangerous home underdogs vs. the Rutgers Scarlett Knights tonight. After all, Rutgers is not exactly an upper echelon Big East team, and they have been very unimpressive thus far. They are coming off of a shocking 66-56 home loss to a supposedly outclassed Binghamton team in a non-lined game, which marked their second non-lined home loss of the season after losing to Lehigh at Piscataway earlier this year. Even the wins by the Knights have not been impressive, such as a four-point win over Rider and a narrow two-point win over Marist. Now they find themselves favored on the road vs. an Ivy League team that in reality is on par with the teams that Rutgers has struggled with. Now Princeton may be 2-4 straight up, but they have been competitive in their lined games so far, going 3-1 against the spread. The Tigers are coming off of a nice covering effort on the road vs. St. Bonaventure last time out, the same Bonnies team that also went into Piscataway and upset Rutgers outright earlier on. The bottom line here is that not much separates these teams on paper when you factor in their schedules, and we simply see no justification for Rutgers being installed as a road favorite in this spot.
