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 63% pick still loses about 4 times in 10.

Advantages Why St. John's can win

  1. Home court: St. John's play at home, worth about 3.5 points in women's college basketball.
  2. Strength of schedule: St. John's 106th (+0.6), Lafayette 322nd (-0.9) of 364.
  3. Defensive rebounding (share of misses): St. John's 108th (70.9%), Lafayette 335th (62.9%) of 364.
  4. St. John's's offense (91.4 points per 100 possessions, 179th in Division I) meets a Lafayette defense that ranks 260th.
  5. Team matchup: where St. John's can take advantage. Their offensive rebounding (231st of 364) meets the Lafayette defensive rebounding (335th), so look for them to crash the glass for second chances.
  6. Star matchup: At forward, Sa'Mya Wyatt (St. John's: 10.9 pts, 4.9 reb, 1.1 ast, Game Score 7.3) has the edge on Maddison Krug (Lafayette: 3.8 pts, 7.3 reb, 1.1 ast, Game Score 6.0).
  7. Simulation: St. John's win 3,170 of 5,000 simulated games.

Disadvantages Why St. John's may not

  1. Season-long ratings: betting lines have rated Lafayette about 2.0 points stronger over recent games.
  2. Ball security (turnovers per 100 possessions): Lafayette 102nd (20.8), St. John's 309th (26.0) of 364.
  3. Three-point shooting: Lafayette 51st (34.2%), St. John's 238th (29.3%) of 364.
  4. Range of outcomes: in the worst 10% of simulations St. John's lose by 13 or more.
  5. Team matchup: a strength St. John's may not get to use. Their shooting efficiency (76th of 364) meets the Lafayette shooting defense (127th), one of the better units at stopping it, which can take away their plan to get clean looks against a defense that gives them up.
  6. Star matchup: Best player against best player, Teresa Kiewiet (Lafayette: 16.3 pts, 6.1 reb, 1.2 ast, Game Score 10.2) has the edge on Brooke Moore (St. John's: 11.7 pts, 4.6 reb, 1.3 ast, Game Score 8.9).
  7. Upset odds: Lafayette win 1,830 of 5,000 simulations (37%). A 63% pick still loses about 4 times in 10.
