College Basketball

At home the Screaming Eagles beat the number twice in 11 tries in 2025-26, a rate just two Division I sides undercut; on their travels they covered eight of 15. Four of their five wins over priced opponents came on the road.

The record first

Seven wins, 23 losses, 12 covers in 28. One unit on every priced moneyline lost 14.5 across 28 games, a 51.8% loss; 14 Division I teams did worse. Most of that loss was taken at home.

Home was the problem

Southern Indiana went 3-10 at home, and two of the three wins came against opponents with no line. In the 11 priced home games: one win, two covers, 9.65 units lost. Just four Division I teams lost more on the home moneyline, and two others shared the 18.2% home cover rate. The lone priced home win was 96-64 over Western Illinois on 23 January at -285. Short spreads went against them as well, among them 60-64 to Morehead State getting 1.5 points on 20 December.

The road paid its way back

Away, 4-11 straight up but eight covers in 15, and the 15 priced games lost only 2.85. The four road wins: 64-56 at Valparaiso at +400 on 26 November, 71-54 at Tennessee Tech at +185, 77-70 at Western Illinois at -166 and 70-68 at Eastern Illinois at +170.
