Davidson vs St. Joseph’s Prediction

These teams split the two meetings this season, but it was St. Joseph’s that won the meeting a week ago on the road. Davidson played yesterday and struggled to put away a bad Loyola Chicago team. St. Joseph’s has had a week of rest and enters the tournament 8-2 SU and ATS in its last 10 games. St. Joseph’s isn’t scaring anybody offensively but it’s one of the best defensive sides in the entire country. Rested, St. Joseph’s should have a field day pressuring the ball. I’ll lay the small number with St. Joseph’s.
