Northern Kentucky at Saint Louis Prediction: Pass on the Heavy Favorite
Analysis updated November 10, 2026 at 8:26 AM CST
Saint Louis has six double-figure scorers through two games, but the available evidence does not justify its steep moneyline or a bet on the 23.5-point spread.
Saint Louis has the stronger early results
Saint Louis University Athletics reports that the Billikens are 2-0 after a 90-84 win over Missouri. Northern Kentucky is 2-1 after losing 104-67 at Texas A&M. Those results favor Saint Louis at Chaifetz Arena, but its -6500 moneyline offers little return.
Saint Louis has six players averaging at least 11 points, led by Quentin Jones at 14.5. That balance makes the Billikens the likely winner, though two games aren't enough to support laying 23.5 points.
Northern Kentucky can still score
Willie Foster averages 23.0 points for the Norse, while Noah Pagotto averages 19.0 and is shooting 70 percent from the field. Eric Acker adds 17.3 points per game, and B.J. Davis-Ray averages 11.7. That production gives Northern Kentucky a plausible path to staying within the spread, but its 37-point loss at Texas A&M makes the underdog difficult to back.
The same limited sample leaves no firm case for either side of the 168.5 total. Saint Louis should win, but the better betting decision is to pass.
