Both of these teams finished at 4-14 in the conference and in their 2 meeting this year the Keydets were a 6.5 home dog on Jan 21st and an 11 point road dog on Feb 20th so you would expect this line to be a bit higher. The reality is Vegas did a good job with this number as VMI pulled the upset at home and only lost by 6 at Samford therefore covering the pair of games by 9 ppg. We love playing against favorites when you have two "poor" teams as one team that doesn't win game often is also laying points and that is the Bulldogs as they are 2-11 their last 13 games with one win the aforementioned non-cover and the other against the only teams that finished below these two, The Citadel. Sanford has also been a favorite of over 4 points ONLY FOUR times this year (1-3 ATS, cover Citadel). In the same stretch which Samford played their last two games, VMI had a make-up and played 4 games. It was almost a mini-tournament and positives certainly came out of it as they went 2-2 SU and 4-0 ATS. Interestingly both teams also played at Chattanooga in their last game with VMI getting 12.5 and losing by 2 and Samford also getting 12.5 and losing by 11 showing up this line should be much closer to Even.
