I’m not running to the window to back either of these teams if we’re being honest, and it may be worth to just grab the points if forced to pick. However, the Lehigh Mountain Hawks have looked slightly better on both sides of the ball this season, and they did take Rutgers to overtime in their season opener. Lehigh has shown more signs of life. I’ll lay the bucket.
