Point Spread: -2½/-110 Appalachian State

Sportsbook: DSI

Result: Win

Taking APPALACHIAN STATE here. At first glance, I was looking at Furman here. Off a 23pt home loss to a good Charleston team. But we are going with the short home fave. The reason why you get blown out by 23 at home while shooting 29% is pretty easy to identify. Furman is a young team. It is a rebuilding year here. You have a hungry Appy State team out for payback. Last year Furman won both contests covering as 9.5 faves at home, the winning by 2 as 10 point dogs on this court. Furman 1-4 ATS last 5 on the road, and I expect those road woes to continue. 4* APPALACHIAN STATE
