Vermont has managed to beat Brown, Ball State, Lyndon State, Merrimack, Dartmouth and Colgate this year. The losses have come versus Saint Mary’s, CSUF, USC, Iona, Yale, UNCW, LBSU and Toledo otherwise. 

Last Tuesday versus Toledo, Vermont was drilled in the first half 42-28. The Catamounts picked it up with 44 second-half points but still lost 84-72. Dylan Penn was the leading team scorer on 20 points, and Aaron Deloney added 15 points. 

Over on the Miami side, they’ve got just one loss to Maryland so far. The Hurricanes have beaten Lafayette, UNCG, Florida A&M, Providence, St. Francis BK, UCF, Rutgers, Louisville, Cornell, NC State, St. Francis PA and Virginia otherwise, however.

PICK: I may take a stab on Vermont here. The Catamounts have played much better over their last five games or so—they’ve hit a 4-1 run in that time. Vermont has also scored 66 or more points in all five outings. The Catamounts will need all the offensive firepower they can muster to hang around in this one. As for Miami, they’re rolling along nicely and coming off a great win over a talented Virginia team. The Hurricanes have hit 66 or more points in every game this year, so this is bound to be another fairly high-scoring affair if all goes to plan.
