💰 Best Bet #1 Old Dominion Monarchs / Spread / -9.5 at -105 / 65% / Old Dominion’s strong home efficiency rating (adj. O/D eff. around 105/98 per recent KenPom data) and Norfolk State’s poor road success rate (under 40% in early 2025 season) support covering the spread, with home advantage adding a 3-4 point edge.

💰 Best Bet #2 Under / Total / 149.5 at -110 / 58% / Both teams exhibit below-average tempo (ODU at 68 possessions, Norfolk at 65), combined with solid defensive rebounding (ODU 72%, Norfolk 70%) limiting second-chance points, projecting a combined 142 points in simulations.

💰 Best Bet #3 Old Dominion Monarchs / Moneyline / -440 / 78% / Consensus odds reflect ODU’s superior adjusted efficiency and 8-2 home record in recent form, with Norfolk struggling against similar mid-major foes (2-6 ATS).
