(NCAAB) UIC vs. Bradley, 03/08/2024 9:30 PM, Score: 47 - 74
Point Spread: 12.00 | -110.00 UIC (Away)
Result: Loss
These games have traditionally been very low-scoring as Missouri Valley teams transition from playing in 8,000-seat gyms to an 18,000-seat arena that doesn't host basketball at any other time during the year. Bettors have pounced on Bradley early on Friday morning because of the extended workload that the Flames had to pull last night, but we're not sure that should be the case. Take another look at those point totals above. Seven out of eight teams failed to crack 64 points in their first game at that arena yesterday. UIC has a game under its belt. In our eyes, the fatigue factor gets balanced-out by having a game in this arena wih the shooting conditions. We'll back the dog with the Illinois-Chicago Flames+12.
