This is an 8* MID-MAJOR DESTRUCTION on Duquesne.
While I won't be so bold as to call for an outright upset, I do think this is too many points to be giving up here and look for the visitors to catch the home side a bit complacent and to comfortably sneak in through the back door as the game comes down the stretch. Duquesne plays with revenge after falling 75-58 in Pittsburgh last season. In fact, to call this a "revenge" spot would be a bit of an understatement I think as the Spiders own a near-perfect 16-1 SU record against the Dukes in A-10 games. Also note, UR ended DU's season last year with a 76-64 win in the first round of the A-10 Championship at the Barclays Center. Richmond has little to fear from its lowly visitors today, it's 9-2 at home, the perfect combination of situational factors which I believe will lead to a "letdown" tonight. The Dukes are playing a third game in the last seven days, the team has had little time to dwell on losses, another situational factor which I feel benefits us tonight. Note that three of DU's seven A-10 games have come down to the final possession; and note, despite its 6-12 SU record, Duquesne has been outscored by a total of just 15 points on the year. As primarily a "situational" handicapper, these are exactly the types of games that I am constantly on the search for, grab as many points as you can with DUQUESNE.
