New Hampshire vs Brown Prediction

I’ll take a stab on New Hampshire. Following last season’s disappointing campaign it’s tough to be bullish on the Wildcats but they’ve really nowhere else to go but up. New Hampshire doesn’t have a ton of depth on the bench, however they’re putting a decent set of starters out on the court this year. The Wildcats went just 2-6 in games decided by five points last year, so some late situational awareness will go a long way.

As for Brown, they’re also putting an experienced group on the floor following a tough season in 2025-26. The Bears have 6-8 forward N’famara Dabo (7.2 PPG) joining the returning crop of guards, and if things went well in the offseason we should see a bit of improvement from the team this season.

New Hampshire Wildcats Betting Preview

Last season was a forgettable one for New Hampshire. The team limped to a 9-21 overall record and went just 5-11 in America East games. As a result, the Wildcats were left with a finish ahead of only Binghamton in the standings. New Hampshire finished the regular season on a 1-8 run and lost to UMBC in the first game of the conference tournament.

Moving on to 2026-27, the Wildcats are going into the fourth season for head coach Nathan Davis, who has mustered only a 33-60 record in his tenure. The good news is that New Hampshire does have a bit of continuity, as there are three starters returning from last season. Tyler Bike (7.5 PPG) and Davide Poser (7.0 PPG) both started every game last year.

Brown Bears Betting Preview

Over on the Bears’ side, they didn’t have a great run last year either. Brown went only 9-18 overall with a 3-11 run in the Ivy League. Needless to say, that effort put them in the basement of the standings behind Columbia, Dartmouth and Princeton at 5-9. The Bears lost nine of their final 11 games down the stretch to cap off a disappointing campaign.

This season Brown hits the reset button with new head coach Eric Reveno at the helm. He’ll have 11 returning players from last year’s team, which is a pretty hefty number in the modern climate. Three senior guards are back in Adrian Uchidiuno (9.1 PPG), Luke Paragorn (7.1 PPG) and Malcolm Wrisby-Jefferson (4.2 PPG).
