This is a 10* BIG EAST ATS BLOWOUT on St. John's.

REASONING: St. John's will be desperate here as it's lost five of its last six, most recently falling to Seton Hall on Sunday. Providence had won two in a row, but comes into this one off a loss at Villanova last weekend. The Red Storm have struggled defensively, but continue to get good play from guard Marcus Lovett, who finished with 22 points against Seton Hall. The Friars play six of their next nine at home and we think come in a bit complacent here, note that Providence has already struggled in this spot for bettors this year, going just 5-6 ATS as a favorite and only 1-3 ATS against teams with losing records. And note, this is a position in which the Red Storm have excelled, going 4-3 ATS on the road and 6-5 ATS against teams with winning records. We think the desperate visiting side keep this a lot closer than what Las Vegas is leading us to believe. Play on ST. JOHN'S.
