2 units on College of Charleston +9 (-110) (risk 2 to return 3.82)
Result:
LOSS

The College of Charleston has snuck out of some NCAA buildings with some upsets in the past, and after a period of down years the program should be on the rise, especially under Bobby Cremins. He inherits a team that is full of talent, and combine that with his coaching skills and recruiting ability and this team should be dancing come March. Villonova has lost a lot of key players, and gets Curtis Sumpter back after missing almost all of last year. Nova is a very talented team, but may take some time to fit the new pieces together. Charleston is a veteran team returning four starters, and on a neutral court in November it is simply too much to lay. We all saw what Oral Roberts did to Kansas, so Cinderella sometimes makes an early call. We're not sure if this is a Cinderella story, but you feel it will be a game down the stretch, a bundle of points is worth its weight in gold.
