Meanwhile, the Danes are 8-0 ATS in their last eight road games and 3-7 ATS in their last 10 Wednesday games. Albany is 5-1 ATS in their last six after an ATS loss.
PICK: I’m going to try Binghamton in this one. The Bearcats have had a couple of tricky matchups lately but for the most part they’re still doing well against comparable opponents. The Bearcats have hit 68 or more points in each of their wins so far this year, one of them being an 88-79 road win over Albany on January 6. I like another strong effort from Binghamton in this one as the team rolls to a high-total cover.
