Providence Friars vs Yale Bulldogs Point Spread Picks

Yale has won four in a row with a powerhouse defense, allowing 51, 58, 46, 59 and 60 points during the streak. But they will have to rely on that defense against #25 Providence. Yale is 5-2 UNDER the total on the road and 5-1 UNDER the total in non-conference games. Providence can play defense too, holding Florida State to 54, Navy to 51 and two other opponents to 60 and 45. The UNDER is 10-4 in the Friars' last 14 non-conference games. Providence is playing its fourth game in eight days and has Kentucky on deck in two nights. Yale is  playing its fourth game in seven days, so look for a slow paced first half, holding the wagering value. Play the first half UNDER.
