The Yale Bulldogs and the Mississippi Valley State Delta Devils meet in college basketball action from the Stan Sheriff Center on Sunday.

The Yale Bulldogs will be out to build on a 74-60 win over Eastern Washington in their last game. Matt Knowling led the Bulldogs with 26 points on 10 of 15 shooting with 6 rebounds while John Poulakidas added 13 points with 4 threes and Isaiah Kelly added 11 points to finish off the trio of double-digit scorers for Yale in the win. Bez Mbeng added a team-high 7 assists as well and Jack Molloy had 6 rebounds as well in the win.

The Mississippi Valley State Delta Devils will try to bounce back from a 72-54 loss to Hawaii in their last game. Terry Collins led the Delta Devils with 15 points including 3 threes and a team-high 6 rebounds while Michael Barber added 11 points with a pair of blocks as the only other MVSU player to score in double figures in the losing effort.

Yale is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall and 19-7 ATS in their last 26 neutral site games while the under is 7-0 in their last 7 games overall. Mississippi Valley State is 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games overall and 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games against a team with a winning record while the over is 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 games following an ATS win.

I get the case to be made for an underdog in some spots, but while they got a cover against Hawaii, it doesn’t change the fact that the Delta Devils are one of, if not the worst team in college basketball. Yale picked up a solid win over Eastern Washington, a good Eastern Washington team at that, and I think they can add to that and pile on with a win over the Delta Devils here. Give me Yale.
