St Johns are 6-6 ATS this season and have lost their only away game this year but have an 11-1 record. The Wildcats have played well at home and have only covered 1 spread on home court. I expect st.joins to keep this close as a Statement game to show they are the real deal. They are pretty similar in defensive stats but the St Johns offense should be able to hold their own. I lean under this total however, which is probably laid because of the offensive tenacity of both squads, but the defenses should be relied on heavier given the difference in strength of competition.

Official Play: St.Johns +5.5

Side Bet: Under 146.5
