Cornell vs Lafayette Prediction

Lafayette is battle tested after playing two better teams in Texas and St. Joe’s, but we haven’t seen enough offensive spark to believe it can compete in these spots. Cornell doesn’t have depth, but Noard and Hinton look like superstars through two games and are on a heater offensively. If those guys keep cooking, this should be a nice road win for the Big Red. The line is reasonable. Give me Cornell on Thursday.
