Chicago St +130 ML over Le Moyne
Jones Convocation Center – Chicago, IL
2:00 PM ET. If you’re looking for the quintessential “trap game,” this is it. Chicago State sits at the bottom of the college basketball world, a 361st-ranked program (per KenPom) with one win all season. Yet here we are, with the Cougars priced as live home underdogs against a Le Moyne side stepping into an unfamiliar role as road chalk.
Le Moyne is just 2-8 on the road this year, and they’ve been blown out in their last three away games by 16, 19, and 29 points. While one of those losses was to ACC powerhouse Notre Dame, the other two came against Long Island and Niagara—teams no better than Chicago State. Still, Le Moyne is being asked to cover as a road favorite, a role that’s proven perilous for teams unaccustomed to carrying such expectations.
The market sees Chicago State as an easy fade, focusing on their winless home record and recent blowout loss to Stonehill. But the Cougars have shown flashes of competence, including a double-digit road win over Wagner earlier this year. Against a vulnerable Le Moyne team, Chicago State can deliver a spirited effort fueled by pride and opportunity. This is a classic case of inflated perception versus reality, and we’ll side with the undervalued home dog.
