Lipscomb vs. Queens Prediction

I’m with Lipscomb here. I really wanted to get on Queens, who have shown that they can hang with the big boys in the ASUN, as they’ve already beaten Lipscomb at Lipscomb earlier this year. However, I think I need a few more points to be able to get on board with Queens here, as the Bison for me are still the best team in the ASUN on both ends of the floor and it’s really hard to go against them here, even on the road, with revenge on the mind from one of the few blemishes they’ve had in conference play to this point. I think Queens is competitive early on, but the Bison have the best road record in the ASUN for a reason. I think Lipscomb exacts their revenge, so I’ll lay the points here.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Lipscomb -4.5
