Bryant vs Quinnipiac Prediction

I’ll take a stab on Bryant but it’s probably a coin flip. The Bulldogs only led for 29 percent of the game in their win over Siena this week, and didn’t shoot spectacularly well either. Bryant hit 40 percent from the field and 29 percent from 3-point range with 14 turnovers, but did hold the Saints to just 38 percent shooting from the field and 22 percent from outside. Siena’s 15 turnovers didn’t hurt either. If the Bulldogs can clean a few things up and take some more high-percentage shots in this one I think they’ll be okay.

As for Quinnipiac, they obviously weren’t going to finish anywhere close to a great Michigan State team in a road matchup during their opener—and they didn’t. The Bobcats shot just 36 percent from the field and 54 percent (13-of-24) from the line with 16 turnovers and a 46-27 rebounding deficit in the blowout loss. A game like that makes it difficult to see where Quinnipiac potentially stands this year. We’ll get a better look at both teams in this matchup though, and it could potentially be quite competitive.

Bryant Bulldogs Betting Preview

The Bulldogs are coming off a pretty disappointing season in 2025-26. Bryant limped to a 9-22 overall record with a 5-11 run in the America East Conference games. In the standings that would put the Bulldogs ahead of only New Hampshire and Binghamton. Bryant finished off the regular season on a 1-5 run before falling to Vermont in the first game of the America East Tournament.

This year Bryant has one game in the bag. The Bulldogs played Siena at Chace Athletic Center in Smithfield, Rhode Island and it was a pretty tight one. Bryant ended up winning 80-75, though. The Bulldogs’ top scorer was Keegan Harvey with 20 points, 12 rebounds and two assists for a double-double. Bryant got 14 points off the bench from Duane Thompson, and Onyx Nnani had 13 points with seven rebounds and two turnovers in thewin.

Quinnipiac Bobcats Betting Preview

Over on the Quinnipiac side, they put up a pretty decent season last year but didn’t meet their expectations. The Bobcats went 19-13 overall with a 12-8 run in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference, finishing behind Merrimack, Saint Peter’s and Siena in the standings. Quinnipiac went 1-3 to finish the year and lost to Marist in the first game of the MAAC Tournament.

Quinnipiac had the unenviable task of going into Breslin Center in East Lansing to take on the Michigan State Spartans in their opener on Monday. The Bobcats got pummeled in that one 96-59. Quinnipiac’s top scorer in the defeat was Tayeshawn Cunningham-Pemb with 11 points, one assist, one rebound and two steals. The only other team player to reach the double-digit mark was Nate Guerengomba with 10 points and one rebound in the losing effort.
