T.M. Selection: Davidson/Richmond OVER.

I am on the over in the Davidson vs Richmond game on Friday. Davidson has won 12 games in a row and they have put up 70+ points in all of those games. Their 2 losses this year were the only games that they didn't put up 70+ points in but those 2 losses were right at the beginning of the year and they have been scoring a ton ever since they went on their huge run. They have been stringing a lot of wins together lately but they haven't been getting those wins by playing good defense and I think this is going to be another game where they focus on their offense and try to outscore Richmond on the road here. Davidson has given up 65+ points in 3 games in a row and all of those games were in conference play. Their defense has been a lot worse on the road though and I think that is going to continue here. They have won all 3 of their road games this year but they have given up 69+ in all of those games, giving up 73+ points in their 2 most recent road games. I don't think Richmond is going to get pushed over by them though and I expect them to put up a fight here since they have the extra motivation of being the team that can end Davidson's long win streak. Richmond is also at home here where they have played much better this year and they just won their most recent game at home while putting up 80 points. That was their 1st win in conference play this year and now that they have the taste of winning in their mouths again, I expect a good performance from them on their home court. I think Davidson is going to focus on shooting and scoring in this game and I think it is going to leave plenty of opportunity for Richmond to keep up and even take the lead. These teams are going to be chasing each other all night with their shooting so I like the over in this game.

T.M. Selection: 81-78 Richmond.
