The Stonehill College Skyhawks and the Marquette Golden Eagles meet Wednesday in college basketball action from Fiserv Forum. Here’s a Marquette vs Stonehill College Prediction. We will look at this from a betting perspective and determine the best Marquette vs Stonehill pick.

Stonehill Skyhawks Betting Preview

Stonehill has been busy so far this year, with eight games in the bag already. The Skyhawks have wins over Framingham State, New Orleans, Bryant, and East Texas A&M in that time, with losses to Notre Dame, Providence, Robert Morris, and Lindenwood.

In the East Texas A&M game on Monday, Stonehill played a pretty close outing. After a 32-30 deficit in the first half, the Skyhawks fought back for an eventual win 67-65. Josh Morgan logged 20 points with three rebounds in that one as the leading scorer.

Marquette Golden Eagles Betting Preview

Over on the Marquette side, they’ve only got six games in the can so far but they’ve all been victories. The Golden Eagles have dispatched Stony Brook, George Mason, Central Michigan, Maryland, Purdue, and Georgia during those half-dozen outings.

In their Saturday matchup with Georgia, the Eagles were up by a modest 36-35 margin at halftime, then hit a 44-34 run for an eventual 80-69 win. David Joplin led the team with 29 points, while both Ben Gold and Chase Ross added 14 points each.

Why the Marquette Golden Eagles will win

• Stonehill has lost each of its last 15 road night games against non-conference opponents.
• Marquette has won each of its last 14 night games against non-conference opponents at Fiserv Forum.
• Marquette has won the first half in each of its last 14 night games against non-conference opponents at Fiserv Forum.

Marquette vs Stonehill College Prediction

I’ll just stay with Marquette, but the line’s probably too thick to mess with. For all intents and purposes, the only real question here will be the margin of the Eagles’ victory, as there’s really no realistic scenario under which Stonehill takes this one. Marquette does have one close finish under five points (78-74 against Maryland) this year but for the most part, they’ve been fairly dominant. Even with a slow first half, 13 turnovers, and a 34-31 rebounding deficit against Georgia, Marquette still won by double-digits.

As for Stonehill, they’ve won three of their last four games. The Skyhawks’ last three have each been decided by two points or fewer, however. Considering Stonehill has been below 68 points in five of their eight games so far, I don’t think they’ll hang too many points on Marquette. This one won’t be close.
