Duquesne at Fordham

January 17, 2026
img12:30 PM Eastern

The Duquesne Dukes and the Fordham Rams have had very similar seasons to this point. Duquesne comes into this game at 9-8 and is out-scoring opponents by six points per game, while Fordham is 10-8 and out-scoring opponents by eight points per game. Generally, when your talent is similar to your opponent's, neither team stops the other very well. Duquesne is averaging 85ppg and loves to speed things up. Those numbers have led to a 12-3 OVER record so far this season. Things are changing for Fordham as they have recently turned up the pace of their games. The Fordham Rams did not allow any of their first 14 opponents to score more than 76 points in a game, yet three of their last four opponents have scored more than 76. I like the OVER in this one.
