Saint Peter’s is 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games following a loss and 0-5 ATS in their last 5 road games against a team with a winning home record while the under is 7-0 in their last 7 Friday games. Quinnipiac is 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games overall and 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games following a loss while the under is 7-2 in their last 9 games overall.

I know that anyone who’s followed me in the past knows that Saint Peter’s unders in conference play are pretty much money, but the reality is that those unders may come in this year because I don’t know how Saint Peter’s will do keeping up on the scoreboard. Quinnipiac side by side looks capable in this matchup and I just think that the Bobcats get the job done at home in this one.
