Vermont led 44-31 at halftime and added 69 points in the second half in the lopsided win. The Catamounts shot 56% from the field, 45.9% on three pointers, and 70.6% on free throws in the game.

Brown Bears Betting Preview

The Brown Bears are 0-1 this year after they lost to Siena by a score of 62-46 in their first game. Brown trailed 29-19 at halftime and was outscored 33-27 in the second half in the ugly loss. The Bears shot 29.3% from the field, 16.7% on three pointers, and 80% on free throws in the game. Brown was out rebounded by a total of 45-36, recorded 10 assists, and committed 16 turnovers in the loss. Adrian Uchidiuno led Brown with 11 points and four rebounds, while Charlie O’Sullivan added eight points and two rebounds in the defeat. 

Brown really had problems on the offensive end of the court and their 19 points in the first half really set them up for failure. The Bears held Siena to just 40.4% shooting from the field, allowed just one made three pointer, and allowed 40 points in the paint. Brown’s largest lead in the game was three points, they had 22 points in the paint, and scored two fast break points. 

Why the Brown Bears will win

  • The home team has won four of Vermont’s last five games.
  • Vermont has lost four of its last five day games against non-Conference opponents.
  • Vermont has lost the first half in three of its last four day games against the Ivy League.

Why the Vermont Catamounts will win

  • Vermont has won 12 of its last 13 games against non-AP-ranked opponents.
  • Brown has lost five of its last six day games.
  • Vermont has won the first half in four of its last five day games.

Vermont vs Brown Prediction 

Vermont comes into this matchup with a 2-0 record, but both opponents were non-D1 teams and they only won by seven points in the first game. Brown lost by 16 points to Siena in their first game and they shot just 29.3% from the field. The Bears were awful on the offensive end, but they did play solid defense for most of the game. This should be an interesting matchup, but I think we will see a lower scoring game, as Vermont likes to play at a slower pace as well. Take the under here.
