Looking over the Towson/Wilmington game.....

I like Towson +2

Wilmington lost at home to Towson early in the season by 5, then turned around and beat Towson @ Towson by 8. This third game is going to be different for Wilmington. As of February 28th, John Field's 10ppg will be on the bench until Mid March. Towson is 8-2 ATS in their last 10 vs teams with overall losing records. Wilmington is 1-6 in their last 7 against teams with overall losing records......I don't see a trend change here.

Towson's turnover % is far better than Wilmington. Wilmington actually turns the ball over so much, they rank 300th out of D-I teams. Towson is 5-4 in their last 9 SU with a road victory over W&M and Wilmington earlier in the season. Wilmington's offense is anemic at times and ranks well below the average in D-I. Their FT% is also a disaster, so when crunch time comes, this could be a deciding factor.

I think Towson is playing some of their best ball as of late....the Old Dominion game said a lot too.

I'll probably play Towson +2 small but just wanted to reply with my 2 cents.
Towson will push the ball more than Wilmington and I think they'll come in packing a punch.

I like the O, too, however I just got wunderdog's free pick. His free pick is the under in this game.

FWIW, I took TOW, no O/U.

Cash it WCI!
