Duquesne vs. George Washington Prediction

I’m on the Revolutionaries here. George Washington’s just been the much more consistent team up to this point in the year, and while Duquesne has definitely shown improvement after a horrid start to the year following last year’s NCAA tournament appearance, the Dukes still have a bit of a way to go in my opinion to be taken seriously down the stretch in the A-10. I just think that GW has a lot of scoring depth that it’s going to be hard for Duquesne to overcome it, and I think the line for GW is more than reasonable in this game. I’ll side with the Revolutionaries here.
