Niagara Purple Eagles vs. Binghamton Bearcats Prediction

I’m on the under in this one. These are just two subpar teams that I don’t trust as far as I can throw them, and I think this one’s going to be a masterclass in offensive futility. This is just a bad matchup so if betting on ugly basketball is your jam, this is a great place to be. Give me the under.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Under 140.5
