Canisius Golden Griffins vs Quinnipiac Bobcats prediction
I considered the Canisius Golden Griffins and the points because they’ve owned the Quinnipiac Bobcats over the years, which includes a 20 point win in December. However, these teams are in different form right now, as the Canisius Golden Griffins can’t get out of their own way while Quinnipiac have improved defensively, and they’re 9-1 SU at home. The Canisius Golden Griffins have been held under 70 points in 4 of their last 6 games, and that’s just not good enough when playing on the road. I like the Quinnipiac Bobcats to get a rare win over Canisius. I’ll lay the points with the home team.
