Vermont Catamounts vs. Princeton Tigers Prediction
I’m on Vermont here. I just think that Princeton is not the Princeton we’ve become accustomed to seeing in recent years, and Vermont is a better team than what they showed for a lot of that game against Rhode Island and for the majority of this little losing skid they’ve been on. I think the Catamounts close out this MTE with a cover so give me Vermont.
