Although the Gaels are 13-4-1 ATS in their last 18 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600, this feels like too many points. The Golden Griffins are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record and are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 home games. The underdog is 19-9-2 ATS in the last 30 meetings. Iona definitely wins this one but I don’t think it’s a double digit victory. I’ll take the points with Canisius.
