Columbia vs Marist Key Stats
The Lions are 2-3 in their last five games and have covered the spread in two of those contests, both as underdogs. Against the Friars, G. De La Rosa stood out as the highlight player for the Lions, scoring 17 points with ten rebounds and two assists. Josh Odunowo contributed 11 points and eight rebounds, but the rest of the roster struggled to provide support at both ends.
The Lions are averaging 70.1 points per game on 42.5% shooting and are struggling to shoot from beyond the arc, with a 32.6% 3-point percentage. They possess one of the worst defenses in the country, giving up 76.6 points on 48.2% shooting. La Rosa has been the standout player for the Lions in both scoring average and steals per game, while Lukas Yurasits leads the roster with a healthy 75% FG percentage.
The Red Foxes, meanwhile, were led by Patrick Gardner (16 points and nine rebounds), Javon Cooley (13 points and 11 rebounds), and Noah Harris, who contributed 13 points in the overtime win against the Bison. They're 2-4 in their last six games and have covered the spread in only two games, in which one was the favorite. Gardner has been the only positive about the struggling Foxes this season.
They have one of the worst offenses in the country, as they're averaging 62.7 points on 37.8% shooting while giving up 66.2 points on 41.1% shooting. They shoot 32.7% from beyond the arc and have struggled to grab rebounds at both ends of the court. Considering the Lions' abysmal run in form, the Red Foxes could get the win by merely riding their momentum from the last game.
Columbia vs Marist Betting Prediction
While the Columbia Lions have hit the under in their last six games, they have done so all four times against teams with a low win percentage. The Red Foxes, meanwhile, have hit the over three times in their last four games. Considering how awful both teams have been in offense, it's going to be a low-scoring game, and the under seems like a pretty good bet.
Pick: Under 138.5 (-110)
