These are two bad teams that struggle defensively, so it’s not a game I’d bet personally. However, if forced to pick, I’d lean toward the St. Francis-Brooklyn Terriers at home. The Terriers are at home, and they’re more battle tested with games against Wisconsin, Penn State and St. John’s. The St. Francis-Pennsylvania Red Flash have struggled, and their schedule has been light for the most part. Give me the free bucket.
