Fordham vs. George Mason Prediction

I’m on George Mason in this game. I get the case to be made for Fordham here, as this is a lot of points to lay with a defensive-minded George Mason team. However, the Patriots are still one of the best teams in the conference while Fordham is viewed by many as one of the worst in the A-10 and I just don’t see Fordham breaking down George Mason here. I think the Patriots take care of business in this one so give me George Mason laying the points at home here.
