Best Bets for Yale vs. Rhode Island
Full-Game Side Bet
Insiders Status:
Rating:
Yale has allowed more than 90 points in three of their road games this season. Rhode Island’s offense already averages more than 90 points per game and is one of the toughest units that the Bulldogs have faced yet. The Rams will have a field day offensively, especially at the free throw line.
Meanwhile, Rhode Island’s defense has been great at forcing missed shots. They haven’t let an opponent reach 80 points yet, and even if the Bulldogs get there, they’ll be at least 10 points away from the lead. Bet on the Rams to beat the spread at home and remain perfect.
Prediction: Rhode Island -3.5
Full-Game Total Pick
Insiders Status:
Rating:
Each team in this game is stronger on the offensive end. Yale has scored at least 79 points in seven of their eight games. Nobody has held the Rams under 81 points this season.
Rhode Island’s tempo will add possessions to this game. The Rams live at the free throw line and Yale tends to allow a lot of free throws. Even without that, Rhode Island has a hyper-efficient offense. The Bulldogs are also an accurate team. Offensive rebounding should be an area where they shine in this matchup, buying them second chances to score. Bank on the over this week.
Prediction: Over 157.5

‘Just knock it off’: Neronha, Whitehouse urge RI to ignore Brown shooting conspiracy theories | ABC6
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WLNE) — Law enforcement are urging Providence and Rhode Island residents to only trust information from official sources in the Brown University shooting.
This follows the doxxing of a student related to online speculation about the shooting suspect’s identity.
According to Brown University, a student’s personal information was shared online, and now Attorney General Peter Neronha is attempting to stem the flow of internet rumors.
Rumors gained more traction after information about the doxxed student was seemingly removed from Brown’s website.
Neronha said that any online rumors about political, religious or racial motivations behind the shooting are unfounded.
Rhode Island Senator Sheldon Whitehouse didn’t mince words when he weighed in on the online discourse in the case.
“So whether it’s to protect the law enforcement investigation from a lot of unnecessary and ill-informed noise cluttering up the ability of the many agencies working on this to do their jobs, or whether it’s out simple courtesy and sympathy to the families who are going through this awful moment, just please shut up with the speculation,” said Whitehouse.
“All the conspiracy theories, all the creepy weird plot ideas, please, just knock it off.”
School officials said it is not unusual to take steps to protect a person’s safety in the event of online targeting.
