St. Francis (PA) isn’t a good basketball team but it’s coming off nice upsets and is now at home where eight of its 12 wins have come. St. Francis (PA) beat Chicago State a month ago by 12 points on the road as a 1.5-point favorite. Chicago State is one of the worst defensive teams in the country and not a team I’m excited to back. Chicago State is also 13-17 ATS on the season and 1-17 SU on the road. St. Francis (PA) can’t afford to blow this game in terms of the NEC standings. I’ll lay points with St. Francis (PA), but it’s a fade of Chicago State more than anything.
