College Basketball Betting - Rhode Island vs. Charlotte
By Eric Williams
The Rhode Island Rams, (21-10 SU, 13-14-2 ATS, 19-9 O/U), are in the midst of their greatest struggles, winning just three times in their last ten games while taking a 74-64 home loss from tonight’s opponent this past Saturday.
The Charlotte 49ers, (18-12 SU, 16-10-1 ATS, 15-12 O/U), have won just five of their last ten games coming into this matchup, but are also riding a three-game winning streak and have picked up four of those five wins in their last five games.
The Rams are averaging a whopping 81.0 points per game on 47.1 percent shooting while allowing 74.4 points per game on 43.2 percent shooting. Rhode Island has covered the spread in just three of their last ten games and just once in their last eight.
The 49ers are averaging 71.0 points per game on a dismal 40.6 percent shooting mark while allowing 67.5 points per game on 41.9 percent shooting.
Charlotte has gone an impressive 7-3 against the spread in their last ten games, including three straight ATS wins coming into this contest.
