Providence vs Hampton Prediction 

Providence comes into this matchup looking for their third straight win of the season and they have played very strong defense in their first two games. The Friars have allowed 49 and 55 points in their first two games and should give this Hampton team plenty of trouble. The Pirates were blown out by 28 points against George Washington in their only D-1 game so far this season and I don’t see how they score more than 50 points here. Take Providence to dominate this game.
