Pick
I’m backing Rider here. Saint Peter’s did well to get past Fairfield, but this is still a Peacocks team that has had trouble scoring in conference play and the Peacocks didn’t have a ton of success in their prior games against Rider earlier this season. Rider is simply the better team here and the more trustworthy option at this point so I’ll lay the points with the Broncs here.
