Pick

I’m leaning towards Quinnipiac here. Canisius won’t just roll over and the Golden Griffins have had some semblance of success in the past against Quinnipiac, but the Bobcats lost their last game against Niagara and are now 5^th in the MAAC, meaning they’d play a first round MAAC tournament game instead of getting the bye if they finished 4^th if the season ended today. I think Quinnipiac has another run in them, but they need to take advantage of schedule spots like this if they’re going to make a move. Give me the Bobcats in this one.
