No betting line has been posted for this game yet. Sportsbooks post lines for many women's college games only on game day, and smaller-conference games often get none at all. Books also take a line down for a while when a key player's status is unclear. We check ESPN's lines before each day's games and add the line as soon as there is one.

Not a promise: a 59% pick still loses about 4 times in 10.

Advantages Why Boston University can win

  1. Recent scoring margins: worth about 5.8 points to Boston University in our ratings.
  2. Efficiency (points per 100 possessions): worth about 2.5 points to Boston University in our ratings.
  3. Boston University's offense (91.8 points per 100 possessions, 170th in Division I) meets a Dartmouth defense that ranks 345th.
  4. Net rating (points per 100 possessions): Boston University 254th (-8.2), Dartmouth 343rd (-23.4) of 364.
  5. Team matchup: where Boston University can take advantage. Their shooting efficiency (79th of 364) meets the Dartmouth shooting defense (306th), so look for them to get clean looks against a defense that gives them up. And their offensive rebounding (254th of 364) meets the Dartmouth defensive rebounding (346th): a chance to crash the glass for second chances.
  6. Star matchup: Best player against best player, Anete Adler (Boston University: 15.4 pts, 6.0 reb, 2.2 ast, Game Score 10.8) has the edge on Cate MacDonald (Dartmouth: 8.8 pts, 6.7 reb, 1.3 ast, Game Score 6.7).
  7. Simulation: Boston University win 2,965 of 5,000 simulated games.

Disadvantages Why Boston University may not

  1. Home court: Dartmouth play at home, worth about 3.5 points in women's college basketball.
  2. Strength of schedule: Dartmouth 69th (+1.0), Boston University 275th (-0.6) of 364.
  3. Range of outcomes: in the worst 10% of simulations Boston University lose by 13 or more.
  4. Weak spot: Boston University rank 351st of 364 in turnovers forced per 100 possessions (17.5).
  5. Team matchup: Dartmouth have no clear unit-against-unit edge, so their path runs through a hot shooting night or a cold one from the favorite.
  6. Star matchup: the key positions lean Boston University on paper, but Cate MacDonald (8.8 pts, 6.7 reb, 1.3 ast, Game Score 6.7) is the kind of player who can swing one game.
  7. Upset odds: Dartmouth win 2,035 of 5,000 simulations (41%). A 59% pick still loses about 4 times in 10.
