(NCAAB) Virginia Commonwealth vs. St. Bonaventure,
Point Spread: 3.50 | -110.00 St. Bonaventure (Home)
Result: Win
VCU managed to cover against George Mason this past Wednesday, 72-60, in a game that was closer than the final score. The Rams won that game despite missing point guard Briante Weber, lost for the season with a knee injury sustained in a 64-55 loss to Richmond on Jan. 31.




But I don't see the Rams covering here especially if leading scorer Treveon Graham is out, too. VCU leads the Atlantic 10, but is vulnerable especially in this road matchup. Graham suffered a high ankle sprain in the victory against George Mason. Even if he manages to play he'll be limited. Weber's loss is huge. He was leading the country in steals per game and had a tremendous assist-to-turnover ratio.




St. Bonaventure is 15-5-1 ATS in its last 21 home games versus foes with a winning road mark. The Bonnies are coming off a dramatic 62-61 road win against Davidson on a basket by Marcus Posley at the buzzer this past Wednesday. Posley leads the Bonnies in scoring at 17.4 points a game and is hitting 36.6 percent from 3-point range. The Bonnies have a good inside-outside game with 7-foot center Youssou Ndoye and Posley. The Bonnies have covered five of their last six games.
