St. Bonaventure Bonnies vs. UNC Tar Heels Prediction

I’m on the Bonnies and the points here. I just think that St. Bonaventure is still a quality mid-major program, and it’s UNC’s first game away from the Dean Dome so far this season. UNC has also been guilty of playing with their food at times and I think the Bonnies can hang around here. Give me St. Bonaventure and the points here.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: St. Bonaventure +11.5
