Saint Bonaventure vs Ohio Prediction
I’ll stick with the Bonnies. Saint Bonaventure took a while to get going against Colgate in their last outing but eventually everything worked out well. The Bonnies posted 47.7 percent from the field with 38 rebounds and 19 team assists, but also struggled from 3-point range on 4-of-19 (21.1 percent) overall. That makes five straight wins for St. Bonaventure though, and they’ve hit a nice 69 or more points in all but one game (67 in a win over East Carolina) so far this season.
As for Ohio, they were able to power past a middling Marshall team in their last outing despite a 36-27 deficit on the boards and a 44-28 disadvantage on points in the paint. The Bobcats did shoot well (48.3 percent) and had just eight turnovers. That gives Ohio 79 or more points in consecutive games, and they’ll likely need to keep scoring well in order to maintain a cover pace here.
