Manhattan vs Sacred Heart Prediction
This line is a bit surprising, as you can make a strong argument that Manhattan is the better team. Sacred Heart has lost four of its last six games and can get rocked defensively. Manhattan has five road wins this season and is coming off two straight underdog wins over Iona and Mount St. Mary’s. Manhattan has also covered seven of its last 10 games. Manhattan can score the ball at a decent clip, and Sacred Heart is a below-average defensive team. Manhattan will have its chance to win this game, snagging three straight upset victories. Give me the Jaspers and the bucket.
