Duquesne vs Saint Joseph’s Prediction

The Saint Joseph’s Hawks are the more talented team and should be favored, but this is a lot of points. The Duquesne Dukes are playing their best ball of the season with wins in seven of their last 10 games, and they’ve pulled off some nice upsets. Duquesne recently beat St. Bonaventure and George Washington, and we can’t ignore the overtime win over Saint Joseph’s three weeks ago. Duquesne has now won four of the last five games against Saint Joseph’s. Also, the Saint Joseph’s Hawks have four home losses this season, so it’s not like they’re some juggernaut. I just can’t get there with this line. This is disrespectful toward the Dukes. Give me Duquesne and the points.
