Fordham vs George Washignton Prediction
I’ll stick with George Washington. The Revolutionaries missed a golden opportunity in their last outing versus a good Saint Louis team and couldn’t pull off the road upset win. George Washington ended up shooting a tepid 41.5 percent from the field in that one with 66.7 percent (14-of-21) from the line and 14 turnovers along the way. The Revolutionaries have lost three of the last four games so they could use some electricity on Saturday in a home matchup that they really need.
As for Fordham, they had a little trouble early on against a struggling La Salle team that was in for a visit, but to their credit the Rams rallied and won. Fordham shot a tepid 41.4 percent from the field but made all eight of their free throws and had just eight turnovers. It’s probably going to take a big offensive effort from the Rams in order to keep a relative pace in this one.
