Siena Saints vs. Vermont Catamounts Prediction

I’m on Vermont here. I think that Siena’s win streak is influencing this line a little bit and they are coming off of two wins against the two worst teams in the MAAC this season. I think Siena’s going to be a team that can contend for the MAAC this season, but I think Vermont is a legitimate team at home, and I wouldn’t be surprised if Siena had one eye on Indiana upcoming. Give me Vermont at home here.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Vermont -1.5
