Canisius Golden Griffins vs. St. Bonaventure Bonnies Prediction
I’m leaning towards Canisius and the points here. These two teams play every year and every year, for hte most part, the game finishes within single digits. For as bad as Canisius was last season, it was only a 9-point loss to the Bonnies in one of Canisius’ best scoring outputs of the year, scoring 78 points. I think this follows suit and I’m taking the points with Canisius here.
