Howard vs Pennsylvania bets present us with some solid College Basketball Vegas odds as the Monday night schedule is a little lighter than usual as some students prepare for their Finals. In the case of Pennsylvania, they enjoy a 12-day break, play one game, then take another week off. It is a goofy time of year in college basketball. The question is can the Quakers rebound after their brutal performance against Kentucky?
Howard vs Pennsylvania bets features an odd spread this Monday night. Now, Pennsylvania loves to play at the old The Palestra. This is one of the iconic arenas to play in. Yes, the Quakers struggling in the early going scares bettors. However, at home, they have been better. Aside from a tough loss to Belmont, Pennsylvania has shown better form (6-1 at The Palestra). In every one of those games, the Quakers have scored 74 or more points.
Saturday taught us a nasty lesson of differences between this Penn team and past editions. For one, the Quakers could not hold on to the ball, get to the line, or make three-pointers. The 15 turnovers was bad enough. Only attempting nine foul shots was worse. However, they compounded their own troubles by shooting 9-for-28 (32.1% from three-point range. Not many teams will win playing that way.
Therefore, some experts worry about Pennsylvania as they enter Ivy League play in three weeks. Bovada Vegas Online Sportsbook weighs in with what was supposed to be a tuneup on Monday. The Quakers could be in a bit of a fight with the Howard Bison. The Bison may only be 3-5 but their offense can turn it up a notch or two. Now, playing in Philadelphia might be too much to ask when it comes for an upset.
Howard vs Pennsylvania bets like the Quakers with the points and to cover on Monday. At VegasBetting, we are willing to live and die by the three. The only other mid to upper-tier game was Gonzaga against Mississippi Value. The Bulldogs were more than 40-point favorites. Okay, we will pass on that. In the meantime, Pennsylvania lays a mere 4 1/2 points on Monday night at home to a team with a sub .500 record.
Currently, Tyler Perkins and Sam Brown are still Freshman. That makes it tough on Clark Slajchert in their three-guard attack. The Senior sees the talent around him but they are mostly young. It makes the Quakers a little volatile when it comes to betting. However, like we mentioned, it is hard to ignore that 6-1 ATS at home. There is a good chance that Pennsylvania can make it 7-1 after Monday night.
Now, this is a bigger test for Pennsylvania than most think. Like we mentioned, Houston and Auburn are still on their non-conference schedule. That is daunting and honestly those are probable losses at this point. This is more about gaining experience for upcoming conference play. If the Quakers expect to get past those pesky Princeton Tigers, they will have to keep improving.
Most figure to see a higher-tempo contest on Monday night. This game expects to be decoded late especially if Pennsylvania gets in any kind of turnover trouble. That is our chief concern with the younger guards. Despite that we like the Quakers to win and cover over the Bison on Monday night.
Howard vs Pennsylvania bets ask do we go over or under here? Pundits know both teams can score and this game could go way over or go Under 140 even. This all depends on the Quakers honestly. There are a few different ways to attack this game. Keep an eye out for the Pennsylvania Over in terms of points. Many are projecting somewhere around 76.5 or so. That would be a place to go for the Over.
Teams are still finding their groove. It is abundantly clear that Pennsylvania carries themselves like a Top-25 team at home for the most part. They disposed of then-ranked 21st-ranked Villanova and even against Kentucky on the road, they were within two points midway through the second half. Potential is there but again, Monday night is one of those games where the Quakers have to show fans, experts, and bettors something more.
College Basketball Vegas Betting Picks wonder about the Game Total. Taking a shot at the Over at 148.5 points is worth a small wager. Again, there is little to go overboard here. It is all about finding some appealing numbers and rolling along.
Yes, the Howard vs Pennsylvania Bets like a few things including that race to ten points (First Half) at -145 for Pennsylvania. That is about the best Quaker number other than the race to ten in the second half at -140. Now, those are good to take here on Monday night.
