The Boston Univ. Terriers are simply a bad basketball team that’s proven to be one of the worst clubs in the country at both ends of the floor. Boston also hasn’t covered numbers at all dating back to last season. The Lafayette Leopards are starting to heat up offensively and they’ve covered a lot during this winning stretch. Two teams heading in different directions. Give me the Lafayette Leopards and the reasonable chalk.
