The Duquesne Dukes and St. Bonaventure Bonnies face off on Saturday in a college basketball showdown at the Reilly Center. When these two teams faced off on January 21st it was St. Bonaventure that came away with the 64-56 victory. 

The Bonnies were led Osun Osunniyi who finished with 21 points and 17 rebounds. The Dukies were led by Amir Spears who finished with 18 points. 

Duquesne comes into this game with a 6-18 record overall and they have gone 8-16 against the spread. In the last game against George Washington, the offense only scored 52 points, and that led to the defeat. The Dukes are averaging 64.6 points while their defense is giving up 71.5 points per game. Guard Amir Spears has been the top player for Duquesne averaging 11.8 points while shooting 36.4 percent from the field. In this game if they want any chance to keep the game close, the defense is going to need to be better. 

On the other side of this matchup is the St. Bonaventure Bonnies who sit with a 16-7 record overall and they have gone 8-14-1 against the spread. The Bonnies have won four games in a row including the last game against UMass where they scored 83 points. St. Bonaventure is averaging 71.6 points while their defense is giving up 68 points per game. Jalen Adaway is averaging 15.5 points while shooting 48.7 percent from the field and 41.3 percent from behind the three point line. 

St. Bonaventure is 3-0-1 against the spread in their last four games overall. Duquesne is 2-9 against the spread in their last 11 games overall. The over is 5-1 in St. Bonaventure’s last six home games against a team with a road winning percentage of less than .400. 

Duquesne is a terrible defensive team and they are going to struggle to keep this game close. Look for St Bonaventure to have no issue to run up the score, and this game is going to get out of hand early. Back the Bonnies to cover the spread.
