UAlbany Great Danes

The Great Danes covered the spread in 5 of 17 road games in 2025-26, a rate only 17 Division I teams fell below. Straight up those trips went 4-13.

Road games

Away from home UAlbany covered 5 of 17, 29.4%. Seventeen Division I teams covered less often on the road and two matched the rate exactly. The 17 road moneylines, backed one unit each, lost 5.43 units.

At home the Danes went 6-5 and covered 4 of 9 lined games; four more games were on neutral floors.

Against the spread, all season

Over 32 games UAlbany went 11-21 and covered 11 of the 29 with a posted spread, 37.9%. Only 24 teams in Division I covered less often. As underdogs they covered 8 of 21; as favorites, 3 of 8.

Favored at home, beaten at home

Of the eight games UAlbany started as favorites it won four. Three of the defeats were at home at short prices: 77-68 to NJIT at -270, 70-59 to Maine at -225 and 89-79 to UMass Lowell at -192. None of the three covered, and the eight favorite moneylines together came to a 2.01-unit loss.

A unit on every priced game

One unit on the Great Danes to win, in each of the 28 games with a moneyline, finished 8.9 units down. November took 5.0 of it, a 3-6 month. The single best return came in December: 71-55 at Stony Brook as +455 underdogs, worth 4.55 units. That single result is why a 1-5 December cost only 0.45 units.

UMass Lowell, three times

No other opponent was faced three times; the third meeting with the River Hawks was the America East quarterfinal on 7 March. UAlbany lost all three and missed the spread in all three, 3 units gone on the moneyline.

The total

Fifteen unders and 14 overs in 29 games with a total: no lean either way.
