Vegas Play of the Day: South Carolina State at Grand Canyon

We've reset the Play of the Day with fresh bankrolls and turned it into a yearly competition. Our three sports writers have re-started with $10,000 bankrolls to continue using on odds from the South Point.

Grand Canyon minus-13 vs. South Carolina State: $550 to win $500

On Saturday, South Carolina State lost the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference tournament final to Hampton, missing out on its chance to reach the NCAA Tournament. Now, two days later, the Bulldogs travel across the country to play a Grand Canyon squad that’s been off for nine days with only this College Insider Tournament to look forward to.

Advantage: Antelopes.

These meaningless postseason tournaments don’t do much for programs trying to get over the disappointment of March, but they’re not terrible for programs on the rise that are still trying to prove themselves. That fits Grand Canyon perfectly, and I think the Lopes get that started with an emphatic home victory tonight.

Current Standings (starting July 1): Brewer (40-32, $12,120), Bern (26-34, $5,615), Keefer (34-48-2, $4,992)

Lifetime standings: 2014-15 Champion 2014-15 Champion Bern (105-108-1), Brewer (109-119-2), Keefer (118-130-4)
