Although this is a chance for the Purple Eagles to get revenge after their loss, I just think Quinnipiac is too much for this team. The Bobcats are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games overall and are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 Sunday games. The Purple Eagles are 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record and are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games overall. Even if the Purple Eagles do win this one, this could easily be a one possession game so I’ll take the points with the better team.
