I was looking at this game before Justin Perri picked and obviously feel better about backing Cornell as well since he did -- and the spread is now up to Big Red +4.5. As he mentioned, Cornell is unbeaten ATS on the season. The SportsLine Projection Model has Cornell winning by four. Sagarin has it about the same, so this line appears to be a gift. Cornell is 7-1 SU in its past eight non-conference games and Coach Brian Earl has played at least 13 players in each game with no one averaging more than 22.0 minutes per.

I think the wrong team could be favored in this one. Cornell is 5-1, including three outright wins as an underdog against Binghamton, Lafayette and Colgate. The Big Red then covered in a loss to Penn State as a dog and against St Francis (PA) as a favorite in a victory. They've yet to lose ATS and face a Canisius team that has had its struggles. The Golden Griffins recently were 10-point favorites over Coppin and only won by a point. I think this is going to be a close battle between upstate New York teams. I'll take the points on the team that's covered every game.
