The Bowling Green Falcons are obviously the better team here and should win, but they finished the season in shaky form and you have to question how motivated they’ll be for this matchup. Early game as well, we could see a sluggish performance from both sides. The Stetson Hatters should be up for this contest given they rarely get a respectable opponent and they shoot the three ball well enough to give them a punchers chance. I’ll take a shot with the Hatters and the points.
