Robert Morris
Moneyline Pick: Robert Morris (-278) - A

Robert Morris has been earning momentum lately while Wright State has struggled to break free from a string of setbacks, compounded by a nagging injury to a key wing that has diminished their defensive vigor. With both squads having logged more than 41 games and the playoff picture looming large on the horizon, Morris’s star forward—historically dominant in matchups against the Raiders—continues to tilt the scales in their favour. This clash also sees Robert Morris capitalizing on an uninterrupted winning rhythm, whereas Wright State’s recent issues and sidelined personnel raise additional concerns. Considering the odds at -278, this pick carries dependable value and earns an A grade for its consistency despite a modest payout if successful.

Over/Under Pick: Under 150.5, (-110) - A-


Wright State’s dynamic guard, Jack Doumbia, steps into tonight’s spotlight amid the team’s recent rough patch—compounded by a significant injury sidelining one of their key five starters—while Robert Morris continues to build momentum on a 15-5 run, buoyed by forward Marcus Jennings’ historical success against this opponent. With both squads exhibiting contrasting winning streaks and adjustments made on defense, there’s a compelling case for a more measured scoring affair despite the tempting offensive sparks that could push totals over. Factoring in these variables—a critical injury to Wright State’s core, the Cardinals’ current offensive rhythm, and matchup-specific performances by star players—the under at 150.5 offers a smart bet with attractive monetary value. Tagline: When defense takes center stage, sometimes less is truly more!

Spread Pick: Robert Morris, -6.5 (-110) - Grade B+
Robert Morris guard Jamal Carter leads a squad that has been lighting up the court even as they navigate a minor setback with a lingering injury to a key forward; with active rosters confirmed, his offensive dynamism and the team’s recent surge (15-5-23-8) stand in stark contrast to Wright State’s mixed performance depicted by an 8-12-15-17 record, which has been punctuated by sporadic winning runs that fail to persist on the road. Historical matchups in the conference have often favored Robert Morris at home, and even though the injury situation and fluctuating momentum add variability, the aggregate numbers, including the spread set at -6.5 (-110) for the home team, signal a solid edge that could translate into appealing monetary value if this pick covers. Grade: B+
