Public Money

From the early stages, we have seen a lean by the public on Elon. 100% of the cash and ticket action is with The Phoenix to reflect this. In light of this fact, we have yet to see the line move in any direction. In Over/Under markets, the figure has risen by 1.5 points to indicate action on the Over.

Elon University Phoenix at Drexel Dragons ATS Prediction 01/25/2018

According to KenPom, the Phoenix are the 16th luckiest team in the country according to the results they have achieved. With this being said, Elon has been on the end of some positive outcomes in situations that could have gone against them. On paper, this looks like a scenario where such variables won’t even come into the fold. However, if we take a closer look at the line offering here the market would suggest otherwise.

As mentioned, these two teams last met under a month ago and Elon won by 13 more points than the price asked here. With respect to home court advantage, one would still expect that number to be a bit higher thus all of the public intrigue out of the gate. However, Elon averages just .4 more points per game than Drexel (72.4 ppg for Elon versus 72.0 ppg for Drexel). The Phoenix also average just .3 more offensive rebounds per game compared to their counterparts (32.9 off rpg for Elon and 32.6 off rpg for Drexel, respectively). When you factor in the road woes that Elon has sustained, there is a very good chance that these numbers may not live up to the mean. If that is the case, Drexel is in line for an upset. Toss in the points and we will lock and load the Dragons.
