North Dakota State Bison & [CBB] Rutgers Scarlet Knights

We are siding with the Bison, whose 11-1 conference record and +10.2 scoring margin are reinforced by a dominant 83-66 road win over North Dakota on February 14th. NDSU’s physical interior edge, which produced a +13 rebounding margin in their last outing, should neutralize an SDSU team they already defeated by double digits in January. With no reported injuries and the Bison entering this matchup with nine road wins—the fourth-most in the nation—the -120 price fails to capture sophomore Andy Stefonowicz’s current form following his perfect 5-of-5 performance from deep last Saturday.
