The Central Arkansas Bears and Queens Royals meet for the ASUN Conference Championship with a first-ever D1 NCAA Tournament bid on the line for both programs.<\/p>\n

This elite Bears defense should be the difference in a game where Queens’ half-court offense runs into a brick wall.<\/p>\n

Central Arkansas vs Queens best bet<\/p>\n

Central Arkansas vs Queens best bet: Central Arkansas -2.5 (-110 at bet365<\/a>)<\/p>\n

The Queens University Royals<\/a> lean on attack-and-kick actions at 18.3 per 100 possessions. Central Arkansas has been one of the best defensive teams in the country against such actions. That’s the single most dominant defensive split in this matchup, and it chokes off the Royals’ half-court creation when rim attacks stall.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, this Queens defense has been routinely exposed this season and is one of the worst nationally in transition, allowing nearly 1.8 points per possession. Central Arkansas will run and defend well enough to notch a tournament bid.<\/p>\n

Central Arkansas -2.5<\/p>\n

Under 155.5<\/p>\n

While both regular-season matchups went Over this number, the conference championship tax should turn this into more of a grinder.<\/p>\n

The Bears will happily run on such a porous transition defense, but when things are forced in the half-court, each of these teams should be able to defend the other. I paired the Under with my best bet for this SGP.<\/p>\n
