Northeastern vs Stony Brook Prediction
The Stony Brook Seawolves are heading in the wrong direction, with losses in eight of their last 10 games. Stony Brook and an offense that shoots just under 40 percent from the field isn't scaring anybody. Stony Brook is also 5-10 ATS on the season and has lost five times at home. The Northeastern Huskies have failed to cover eight of their last 10 games, but they have three road wins and they actually play defense. Stony Brook is allowing 49.1 percent shooting from the field. If the Northeastern Huskies are going to be competitive in the CAA this season, these are games they need to win. The line is reasonable. Give me Northeastern in a comfortable road win.
