Marist vs Richmond Prediction 

Richmond was able to pick up a very easy win in their first game of the season, but this will be the first D-1 game that they play. The Spiders scored over 100 points and shot nearly 56% from the field, but we will see if they can keep that pace here. Marist lost to Harvard in their first game of the season and the offense did not look very good. It is tough to know what we have with Richmond, as facing a non-D-1 team tells us nothing, but I think they are still playing in this matchup. Take the Spiders.
