Duquesne Dukes vs Dayton Flyers prediction
The Duquesne Dukes are a competitive bunch that’s good enough defensively to give Dayton a scare. However, the Dayton Flyers are undefeated at home, have the talent edge, and they already beat Duquesne on the road last month by 10 points. It’s just easier to have more trust in Dayton in this spot, especially at home. I question if the Duquesne Dukes have enough offensive horses to stay in this thing for 40 minutes. I’ll lay the chalk with Dayton.
