Penn State has Impressed

Penn State has Impressed heading into this game, and they have a ton of confidence. Penn State has won each of their first five games and that included a blowout victory over Virginia Tech. Penn State scored 86 points in that game. In the last game against Fort Wayne it was much of the same as Fort Wayne scored 102 points on the way to the 13 points victory. Penn State shot 55.7 percent from the field and 44 percent from behind the three point line. Penn State overall is averaging 98.2 points while their defense is giving up 67 points per game. The offense is ranked 2nd while the defense is ranked 104th. 


Fordham Fell Just Short

Fordham in the last game faced off against Drexel and they scored 71 points while the defense gave up 73 points and that led to the defeat. Jackie Johnson had a strong game putting up 18 points. There were four different players that put up at least 10 points and they are going to need to get the offense going here. More importantly thoug hin this gem is the defense. Fordham is averaging 73.8 points while their defense is giving up 70.5 points per game. The offense is ranked 235th in the league while the defense is ranked 177th. Jackie Johnson III is averaging 19 points while shooting 47.7 percent from the field and 34.8 percent from behind the three-point line. 

Fordham vs Penn State Prediction

Give me Fordam to keep this game close. We have all seen the Penn State offense go crazy this season, and their defense has been decent too, but I am not sold that the defense is all that good. Fordham on the season is averaging 73.8 points per game, and they are going to have no issue running up the score here. Penn State’s defense will have some issue, and Fordham is going to end up covering the spread here.
