Lehigh heads to Boston on Wednesday, January 14, 2026, for a Patriot League matchup with Boston University at Case Gym. Tip is set for 6:00 PM ET on ESPN+. Lehigh comes in at 6-11 overall (2-2 in conference play), while Boston is 7-10 (also 2-2 in the Patriot). The line is tight, with Lehigh laying -1.5 on the road, which tells you this is priced more like a coin flip than a true “road favorite” spot.
This matchup also has a little conflicting energy. Lehigh just stole a one-point win over Colgate, which can create momentum fast, but they’ve struggled away from home all season. Boston is coming off a 100-point game against Army, and the shooting profile suggests that wasn’t pure luck. If both teams get comfortable early, the total at 144.5 is in play. If it turns into a half-court grind with empty trips, it can land short.

Lehigh Mountain Hawks Betting Form
Lehigh is coming off a dramatic 78-77 win over Colgate, and it was carried by two big performances. Hank Alvey posted 20 points and 11 rebounds, while Edouard Benoit went for 27 and 11. That kind of frontcourt production matters here because it gives Lehigh a stable scoring base even when the perimeter isn’t perfect. They can win possessions with physicality and second chances, and that’s often how road teams survive.
The problem is the road profile. Lehigh’s 2-8 away record is hard to ignore, and it usually shows up in stretches where the offense stalls and the defense has to guard longer than it wants to. They’re shooting 44.0% from the field overall and making 7.8 threes per game, which is workable, but it’s not the kind of offense that can play sloppy and still get there. If Lehigh covers this number, it probably looks like a controlled game where they win the glass and avoid live-ball turnovers.

Boston Terriers Betting Form
Boston just played a wild one against Army and came out on top 100-91, which tells you two things. One, they can score in bunches. Two, the pace can get loose on them, and that’s dangerous when you’re trying to protect a small spread as a home dog. Michael McNair dropped 28 points on hyper-efficient shooting, and Chance Gladden added 26 with six assists. That backcourt scoring is the main reason Boston is attractive at +1.5.
Boston’s shooting profile is the selling point. A 49.3% field goal percentage and 40.4% from three is serious, and it creates an entirely different handicap than a typical Patriot League grind. They don’t need to live at the line to score. They can just make shots. At home, they’ve been solid at 4-3, and Case Gym tends to play a little tighter when Boston is making threes early. It’s not a huge arena, but it can feel uncomfortable for a road team if the home side is hitting shots.

Lehigh Mountain Hawks vs Boston Terriers Matchup Breakdown
This game comes down to which style wins out: Lehigh’s ability to create value through rebounding and interior scoring, or Boston’s efficiency from the perimeter. If Boston is hitting threes at anything close to its season clip, Lehigh is going to have to score on nearly every trip to keep pace. That’s tough for a team that has already struggled away from home.
Lehigh’s best counter is to make Boston guard longer and more physically. If Alvey and Benoit are controlling the paint, you can force help, generate foul pressure, and take the air out of Boston’s shooting rhythm. The issue is that Boston doesn’t need a ton of possessions to score if the threes are clean. One or two missed rotations, and the math flips.
The total is the tricky part. Boston’s scoring ceiling is obvious, but Lehigh can also slow the game down if it wants to, especially if it’s playing through the frontcourt and protecting the ball. If the pace stays moderate, 144.5 can still cash Over if Boston is efficient. If Boston cools off, the Under becomes very live.
Lehigh Mountain Hawks vs Boston Terriers Predictions and Best Bets
My lean is Boston +1.5. I’m not in love with backing a team that just played a 191-point game, because those results can sometimes inflate expectations, but Boston’s shooting profile is the real reason. They can win the shot-quality battle without needing a turnover-heavy game, and at home, that matters. Lehigh’s road issues add another layer. Even if Lehigh is the more physical team, I’m not sure they consistently execute well enough away from home to lay points.
On the moneyline, Boston +105 is interesting if you want to go for the outright win, but I still prefer taking the point and a half in what looks like a tight finish. If it lands on one, you’ll be glad you did.
For the total, I lean Under 144.5. The number is fair, but Lehigh has more incentive to slow the game and lean on the frontcourt, especially as a small road favorite. If Lehigh gets into a half-court script and Boston’s threes are a little less clean than usual, 144.5 becomes hard to reach without a late foul parade.
Best Bet: Boston +1.5 (-110).
