Pick

I’m sticking with Charleston here. These two teams just met at the end of the regular season with the Cougars winning by 40, and aside from the venue, I’m not sure what would’ve changed here. Sure, the Cougars could have some rest sinking in while Stony Brook had a chance to shake off some rust, but I’m not sure it matters here if we’re being honest. The Cougars are a level above Stony Brook right now and I don’t see any way around it here. Give me Charleston here.
