Duquesne vs VCU Betting Prediction

Here is our Duquesne vs VCU Betting prediction.

This year’s Atlantic Ten Tournament in Brooklyn, New York has been very strange. None of the top four seeds will be playing in the final. Instead, the sixth-seeded Duquesne Dukes will play the fifth-seeded VCU Rams for the conference title and a guaranteed spot in the NCAA Tournament. The Dukes beat Saint Louis in the second round, Dayton, ranked 24th, in the quarterfinals, and then beat St. Bonaventure in the semifinals to get here. VCU comes in after beating Fordham, UMass, and St. Joe’s on Saturday. Sunday at 1:00 p.m. EST will be the first time the title game becomes available.

Duquesne Dukes Betting Prediction

First, we have the Duquesne vs VCU Betting prediction for the Dukes.

The Duquesne Dukes lost their first five A-10 conference games this season while their coach spent time with his sick wife. They are now only one game away from winning the conference title. With great backcourt play from Dae Dae Grant and Jimmy Clark III, the Dukes took a six-point lead into halftime and beat a tough St. Bonaventure team 80–70 on Saturday to make it to the title game. Grant finished the game with 27 points, making 10 of 15 shots. His backcourt partner Clark led the way with 18 points and six assists. The Dukes also made the Bonnies shoot only 40%, while they made over 50% of their own shots from the floor. They only need one more win to go from being weak to being the conference winners.

Sports and motivation have often gone together very well. It has been more than inspiring for Duquesne head coach Keith Dambrot and his team to have his wife Donna here at the tourney. This year, the team gathered around the coach and his wife as she fought breast cancer. After a successful surgery, she made her first trip of the season to see the team play. The Dukes have won three straight games in the A-10 Tournament, which is a great run. The Dukes have won their first three games by scores of 10, 8, and 10. They have done this by playing tough defense and building their attack around Grant and Clark. These two have scored 107 points between them in three games and have worked well together. This season, the Dukes beat VCU by 10 points on the road. Grant scored 26 points, while Clark only scored 9.

VCU Rams Betting Prediction

Now we have the Duquesne vs VCU Betting prediction for the Rams.

With a 66–60 win over St. Joe’s on Saturday, the VCU Rams pushed their way to the A-10 Tournament final with another great defensive performance. In the first two games of the tournament, Max Shulga didn’t score many points, but in the third game, he came alive and scored 25 points to help the Rams win. At halfway, VCU was down by two points. Shulga scored 19 of his 25 points in the second half to help them come back. The Rams are now 22-12 on the season. If they win on Sunday, they will automatically get into the NCAA tournament. Also, Sean Bairstow had a good afternoon. He scored 13 points by making 6 of 13 field goal attempts, and Zeb Jackson added 12 points to round out the Rams’ double-digit scorers.

What’s next for the Rams? They have to beat Duquesne, a team that beat them by 10 points earlier this season. They only made 37% of their shots in the first half of the game and never really got back on track. Joe Bamisile, their sixth man, will need to do a lot better if they want to beat the Dukes. Before Saturday, Bamisile had scored the most points for his team in the event. But in 23 minutes, he only scored five points and made two of six field goal attempts. In the first game of the season, against Duquesne, he scored 18 points. Through three games, the Rams have kept the other team to just under 60 points per game.

Duquesne vs VCU Betting Pick

Thoughts alone won’t get you very far; what you do will. The Dukes have been very motivated throughout the game, and they have done a great job. The Dukes were only 13th in the A-10 in scoring at the end of the regular season. But they have scored 80 points or more twice in this event. That has a straight link to the play by Grant and Clark. In the tournament, they are both scoring almost 18 points per game, and either one of them can take over a game at any time.

Shulga, Bairstow, and Jackson make up a great backcourt for the Rams, but the Dukes’ pair will be able to beat them easily in one-on-one situations. The Rams haven’t seen a backcourt this powerful yet in the tournament. Grant’s 26 points against the Rams earlier this season shows how dangerous he and Clark can be. When it comes to defense, both teams are good. The Dukes were fourth in the league in scoring defense, and the Rams have held their opponents to just over 60 points per game in the tournament. The Dukes, on the other hand, play better. They are ranked fourth in the nation this season for fewest mistakes per game, while VCU is ranked eleventh. They can also score more easily.
