Iona at Monmouth

Iona has run off seven straight 20 win seasons, and at 9-6 could be in line for an eighth. This team has a well earned reputation for flying up an down the court, and that has raised the stakes in terms of the total. Iona still averages 76.3 points per game, but that is the lowest point average they have held in their last seven years where they collectively average in the 80s. At 10-5, Monmouth has averaged 79 ppg, but on 42% shooting. The Hawks are also in a team shooting slump that has led them to three straight losses, in which they shot 38.9% or worse in all three games, averaging a woeful 36.1%. That is going to make it difficult for this one to get close to 160, as neither of these teams have been the offense they have built their reputation. Play on the UNDER.
