Here’s an NJIT vs. Bryant Prediction

I’m on Bryant here. It’s a big number, but Bryant has been the class of the America East for much of the season and demolished Bryant already in the first meeting this season by 22 points. Bryant’s won the last three meetings by an average of 18.6 PPG and NJIT for my money is still the worst team in the America East. I think Bryant picks up another dominant win over NJIT here so I’ll lay the big number with the Bulldogs at home in this one.
