Rider Broncs Betting vs Canisius Golden Griffins prediction
You can argue the Rider Broncs are in better form as they’re riding a 5-game winning streak. However, the Canisius Golden Griffins are 8-3 SU at home and there’s going to be motivation with this being the last home game. Canisius has 4 seniors on its roster that will want to go out with a victory. The Canisius Golden Griffins took Rider to overtime back in January, so that should give them confidence to believe they can finish things at home. The line is more than reasonable. Because of home court and senior day, I’ll lay the small chalk with the Canisius Golden Griffins.
