Fairfield vs Saint Peter’s Prediction

This total is a little too high. Neither team has been known for their offense, and that is going to be the case again. Saint Peter’s is giving up 65.8 points per game, and they are going to step up in a major way here. Fairfield isn’t exactly known for their defense, but they are going to step up in a major way here, and Saint Peter’s offense is going to have issues getting anything going here. Both offenses are going to be a problem and the under is going to end up cashing here. This is one of my favorite plays of the entire card for Friday.
