T.M. Selection: Lehigh.

I like Lehigh to cover the spread against Lafayette in this game on Saturday. Lehigh has lost 2 games in a row now but I think it is time for them to bounce back here. They just lost their most recent game to Colgate by 15+ points on the road and I was on Colgate in that game but now I like Lehigh to bounce back from that loss and pick up a win here on their home court. They haven't looked terrible in their games lately, they have lost 3/4 of their previous 4 games but some of those games were really close. They did get 1 win during that time but the other 2 losses they suffered were by 6 points at home to Boston U and by 2 points in a road game against Holy Cross. Lehigh hasn't been great this year but they have played their best on their home court and have managed to stay at least .500 with a 6-6 record on their home court. They even have a conference record above .500 at 7-6 and that is more than Lafayette can say since their record in conference play is 4-7 this year. Lafayette has also looked terrible in their road games this year winning 3/11 games. Lafayette had won 2 games in a row in their previous 3 but both of those games were on their home court and once they went to play in a road game they got destroyed, losing to Navy by 20+ points and Lafayette didn't even put up 50+ points in that game either. Lafayette has been terrible in road games all year and I expect that to continue here when they play Lehigh. Lehigh has looked a lot better on their home court and I think they can get break out of their funk with a win here. I like Lehigh to cover the spread in this game.

T.M. Prediction: 74-62 Lehigh.
