We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.
This particular play is based on a few different factors:
As note that USC is 3-1 ATS in its last four after giving up 76 points or more, while Providence is just 1-2 ATS in its last three after scoring 60 points or less.
The bottom line: Both teams went 10-8 in league play. USC went toe to toe with No. 3 UCLA in the Pac-12 Quarterfinals and fell 76-74. The Trojans defense looked awesome, holding the top scoring team in the country to just 41 pecent shooting. We're expecting USC to carry over that defensive intensity into this one. Note that the Trojans average 78.7 PPG and allow 73.2. Providence averages just 70.2 PPG, but makes up for it by allowing only 66.6. They say "defense wins championships," but we've always thought that that addage pertains more to the gridiron than the hardwood. We're going to take the superior offense in this one and as we pointed out, the Trojans also looked spectacular on the defensive side of the ball in the conference tournament. Play on USC.
