NCAA
basketball betting is in full force this week thanks to a ton of conference
championships. Here is your Atlantic 10 Tournament quarterfinals preview. (1) Xavier vs. (9) Dayton – Dayton (20-12, 15-11 ATS) advanced through the first round after topping Massachusetts 78-50. The Flyers have covered back-to-back games, but don’t get too excited, that first-round win ended a three-game losing streak. One of those losses came to Xavier, a 66-62 defeat at home. Speaking of Xavier (24-6, 14-14-1 ATS), the Musketeers head into the quarters after a first-round bye. They’ve ripped off nine consecutive victories and have gained some momentum against
the spread, going 7-1 ATS in their past eight outings. (4) Duquesne vs. (12) St. Joseph’s – St. Joseph’s (10-21, 14-14 ATS)
suffered through a pretty underwhelming season, but it enjoyed a 71-59 overtime
upset over George Washington in the first round. The Hawks are coming on at the
right time, as they’ve won three of their last four games, including a 3-1 run
against the spread. Duquesne (18-11, 13-9-1 ATS), meanwhile, is stumbling into
the postseason. The Dukes picked up a first-round bye despite going 2-6 in their
last eight games. Duquesne was just as bad against the spread, going 1-7 ATS in
that span. The Dukes have lost five straight against the spread. (2) Temple vs. (10) La Salle – La Salle (15-17, 13-4 ATS) squeaked
past St. Bonaventure 75-73 in overtime in the first round. Like St. Joseph’s,
the Explorers are gaining some momentum precisely when it matters most; they are
3-1 in their last four games, not to mention a four-game winning streak. Temple
(24-6, 16-14 ATS) has won three straight—including a 90-82 win over La Salle in
its regular-season finale—and is 11-1 in its past 12 games. The Owls are just
1-4 ATS in their last five outings, however. (3) Richmond vs. (6) Rhode Island – Rhode Island (19-12, 14-14 ATS)
took care of business with a 70-61 win over Saint Louis in the opening round of
the Atlantic 10 tourney. The Rams ended a two-game skid and improved to 3-2 over
their last five outings. Rhode Island is also 3-2 ATS in that span. Richmond
(24-7, 16-12 ATS) is one of the hottest teams heading into the tournament. The
Spiders are 8-1 in their last nine games, and they’ve ripped off four straight
victories against the spread. Get all your college
