T.M. Selection: Princeton.

I like Princeton to cover the spread against VCU in this game on Tuesday. Princeton had a great year finishing in 1st place in their conference but they missed out on a bid to the NCAA tournament when they lost their most recent game in the finals of their conference tournament, losing by 2 points to Yale and sending them there instead. Before that loss, Princeton had won 8 games in a row and a lot of their games were won by 10+ points too. They have looked really good for most of the year and I think they even have a chance to win this game but I definitely think they can cover the spread here at least. VCU also missed out with an exit in their 1st game of their conference tournament. They lost by 10+ points to Richmond who ended up winning the whole thing but VCU has also lost 2 games in a row now and I think they will come out slower in this game since they have been on a much longer layoff than Princeton has been. VCU hasn't played since Friday and I think that can benfit Princeton here since their most recent game was on Sunday and I expect them to get into a groove quicker in this game. Also, VCU doesn't play in the strongest conference and I think Princeton is a lot better some of those teams, I expect them to offer some more resistance to VCU in this game. I think Princeton can keep this game close here. I like Princeton to cover the spread here.

T.M. Prediction: 66-63 VCU.
