Canisius vs Quinnipiac Prediction
In this Canisius vs Quinnipiac Prediction, Quinnipiac is coming as -13.5 home favorites. Quinnipiac has been the better team this season and have been very good at home, while Canisius has been terrible on the road. Quinnipiac has not been in the best form lately, as they are 5-4 in their last 9 games and 2-5 against the spread, but they are going up against a Canisius squad that has been on a free fall lately, with 8 consecutive losses and 3-5 against the spread, while having the 7th-worst offense in the entire nation. I expect the hosts to get the job done and win this one comfortably, so take Quinnipiac and lay the points.
