Vermont vs Bryant Prediction
Vermont isn’t the same team it’s been in past years, but it still wins the games it’s supposed to win and has 5 road wins on the season. Bryant is dreadful offensively and has issues stepping up in competition. Bryant is also 3-6 ATS in its last 9 games. Vermont is also 6-1 SU and ATS in the last 7 games against Bryant. Even in a down year, Vermont should have its way with a struggling Bryant side. I’ll lay the number with Vermont on the road.
