Stony Brook vs Campbell Picks and Predictions – Thursday January 29, 2026
Stony Brook heads to Buies Creek for a CAA matchup on Thursday, January 29, 2026 at 7:00 PM ET. The game tips at the Pope Convocation Center and will air on FloC. Campbell is laying a solid home number, and it’s not hard to see why with how well the Camels have held serve in this building.
The matchup is interesting because Stony Brook is coming off its best road look of the season, while Campbell is coming off a loss but still owns one of the stronger home profiles in the league. This line is basically the market asking whether Stony Brook’s recent offensive spike is real enough to travel again, or if Campbell’s home pace and foul pressure pulls the game back toward the favorite.
Stony Brook vs Campbell Odds
These are the current lines, and bettors should keep monitoring the latest college basketball odds for any late movement on the spread or total.
| Team | Moneyline | Spread | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stony Brook Seawolves | TBD | +6.5 (-117) | 151.5 |
| Campbell Fighting Camels | TBD | -6.5 (-108) | 151.5 |
Stony Brook Betting Form
Stony Brook just went on the road and dropped 95 on Northeastern, and that wasn’t a fluky “hot for 10 minutes” kind of game. They played fast, they shot it clean, and they generated good looks from the start. When Erik Pratt is creating like that, Stony Brook’s offense can climb a tier because the threes come in rhythm instead of late-clock bailouts.
The handicap is whether you trust that shooting level to show up again. Stony Brook’s season-long road record says no, but the last couple games say they’ve found something offensively. If the Seawolves are going to cover +6.5, it probably comes from two things: making enough threes to keep Campbell from controlling the tempo, and avoiding live-ball turnovers that give the Camels easy points.
The pace is also part of the story. When Stony Brook is comfortable, they can score, but they’re not built to win a track meet if they’re getting pushed into mistakes. They need efficient possessions, not extra possessions. You can dig into their recent scoring swings and margin patterns on the Stony Brook stats and results.
Campbell Betting Form
Campbell took a loss to Monmouth, but the broader profile is still what you’d expect from a team laying points at home. They score, they get to the line, and they’ve been very hard to knock off in Buies Creek. The 7-1 home mark matters because it suggests they’re getting consistent effort and shot quality in this building, even when the opponent brings a good game plan.
From a betting perspective, Campbell’s edge is how they create scoring without needing elite shooting. They’re comfortable leaning into foul pressure and forcing teams to defend for long stretches. That can be a problem for road underdogs because it punishes thin rotations and turns the second half into a free-throw math game.
Campbell also has a clear “close it out” path when favored. If they’re up 6 to 10 late, they can keep the game in the bonus zone and make the opponent defend without fouling, which is tougher than it sounds.

Stony Brook vs Campbell Matchup Breakdown
This matchup sets up as a style fight. Stony Brook’s best basketball lately has come when they’re getting clean perimeter looks and turning those into quick runs. Campbell’s best basketball comes when the game gets heavier and more physical, with trips to the line and fewer clean possessions for the opponent.
The total at 151.5 is the tension point. On paper, you’ve got recent Stony Brook offense that screams points and a Campbell team that can score and draw fouls. But the under case is still real if Stony Brook can’t replicate that shooting on the road, or if Campbell dictates a more controlled second half after building a lead.
There’s also a travel and environment angle here. Stony Brook is traveling into a gym where Campbell has been steady, and home teams often get the whistle and the comfort shots. Pope Convocation Center isn’t a massive arena, but it plays like a true home court for a team that feeds off momentum runs. If Campbell starts fast and Stony Brook has to chase, the favorite becomes more live to cover because the game script forces the Seawolves into lower-quality threes and rushed possessions.
If you want one clean way to frame the game: Stony Brook needs shot-making to stay close, Campbell can cover without it if they win the foul and turnover battles.
Stony Brook vs Campbell Predictions and Best Bets
I lean Campbell -6.5. The matchup gives Campbell more ways to win, and more importantly, more ways to win by margin. Their home edge is real, and their ability to get to the line is a problem for an underdog trying to hang around without giving away free points.
I also lean under 151.5, even with the obvious “Stony Brook just scored 95” argument on the other side. The number is pricing in another clean offensive night for the Seawolves, and that’s the part I’m least willing to bet on in this building. If Campbell controls tempo at all, or if Stony Brook’s threes normalize, the total can land in the mid-140s even with late fouling.
The one caution if you’re playing the under is that Campbell’s foul-drawing can inflate a total when the game stays close. But if Campbell is in front most of the night, the late-game pace often slows, and that helps the under survive even with free throws.
Best Bet: Campbell -6.5
