Saint Peter’s vs Manhattan Prediction
The Manhattan Jaspers have simply been a below average team on both sides of the ball this season, and I doubt any of that changes on the road. The Saint Peter’s Peacocks are a solid defensive team, and they’re coming off two strong road wins, which only adds to the confidence. Saint Peter’s is also 5-1 ATS on the season. Saint Peter’s is hitting its stride with four straight wins and even gave Rutgers a run before that. This should be a routine win for the Peacocks. I’ll lay the points.
