George Mason vs St. Joseph’s Prediction

George Mason has won 7 of the last 10 games against St. Joseph’s, which includes a win earlier this month. However, George Mason has lost three straight games and is heading in the wrong direction defensively. Those issues usually don’t fix themselves on the road. St. Joseph’s has 11 wins at home and has covered 8 of its last 10 games overall. It feels like St. Joseph’s is making a move in the A10, and a win here would be another nice step in doing so. At home in a pick ’em spot, I have to lean toward St. Joseph’s.
