Oakland vs. Robert Morris Prediction
I’m backing Oakland in this one the Golden Grizzlies are just battle-tested and while I like what Robert Morris has done in spots in conference play the offense is still wildly ineffective at times and Oakland has the better 2-point offense and defense in conference play so far this season which is where these teams like to do a lot of their damage respectively. I think that the Golden Grizzlies are playing just as well as RMU here and like I said, the little things that Oakland does really well could be the difference here. Give me Oakland and the points.
