Dayton Flyers vs Providence Friars

The Dayton Flyers had a miracle comeback in the First Four, and have to feel fortunate that game was in Dayton. They spent a lot of energy and no longer have the home court advantage as they move on to take on Providence. Providence finished the season at 22-11. The Friars nearly pulled off a huge upset in the Big East Tournament losing to #1 seed Villanova by just 2 points. The Friars took on a schedule that included 15 games vs. teams that made the NCAA Tournament, they are a well seasoned team, and should fare well in this one. Henton and Dunn are two of the best players in the country and are capable of leading the Friars to a deep run. Dayton started the season at 15-2, and slipped a bit from that point on closing 11-6, and have failed to cover four of their last five, and own just a 1-6 ATS mark in their last seven outside the conference. The Friars have been a perfect 9-0 ATS in their last nine at a neutral site. Make the play on Providence.
