The Dayton Flyers and George Washington colonials face off on Sunday in a college basketball showdown at Charles E. Smith Center.

This might not be as talented of a Dayton Flyers team as last year, but this is still a team that has looked good sitting with a 7-3 record overall. Each of the last two games , Dayton has come away with victories, and the offense has been the difference in each of the two games. Two games ago it was in overtime, but Dayton put up 89 points. Dayton on the season is averaging 70 points per game while their defense is giving up 66.1 points per game. Dayton is led by Jalen Crutcher who averages 19.2 points and shoots 52.3 percent from the field and 41.5 percent deep.

On the other side of this matchup is the George Washington Colonials who currently sit with a 3-8 record overall and they have lost two of the last three games. In the last game against VCU the defense really struggled giving up 84 points and that led to the loss.George Washington is averaging 74.1 points per game while their defense is giving up 74.5 points per game. In this game George Washington is going ot need their defense to step up or they are going to have very little change to come away with the victory George Washington is led by James Bishop who averages 20.1 points and shoots 44.6 percent from the field and 36 percent deep.

Dayton is 6-2 against the spread in their last eight games against A-10. The over is 6-2 in George Washington’s last eight home games. The over is 10-4 in George Washington’s last 14 games played on Sunday. The over is 7-1 in the last eight meetings played between the two teams. 

There isn’t a great play on the side but when these two teams face off, the over has been the play. Look for this game to go well over the total. Back the over to cash.
