Pick
I’m leaning towards Canisius here. Saint Peter’s is the better team, but they haven’t been able to really produce offensively, struggling to score more than 60 points more often than not in conference play. Canisius has picked it up offensively as of late and this just feels like a spot where the Golden Griffins just outscore Saint Peter’s on the way to a win and cover here.
