Pick

This isn’t a game I’m rushing to bet, but I lean towards Niagara here. The Purple Eagles have struggled, but a lot of their struggles came on the road and at home they’ve been able to beat lesser teams all year long. Fairfield’s played some close games, but I just don’t feel like we’re getting enough points to consider the Stags in this spot. Give me the Purple Eagles laying the bucket.
