I like Canisius to win this game on the road for these reasons:

- They have had tbe tougher schedule and better wins between the two teams (beating Wofford, WKU, and Quinnipiac)

- Beat them last year @ Rider and the big 3 that beat them then, are still on the roster for Canisius and they have added another threat in Siem Uijtendaal who averages 15 points per game.

- Canisius are shooting 38% from long range compared to Riders 27%, as well as Rider allowing teams to average 32% from long range.

- Canisius score more points (76 pt avg) & allow less points (73 pt avg) per game than Rider even though it's a slight marginal difference, Canisius have more ways to win.

Rider played Quinnipiac very well last outing but Canisius beat Quinnipiac by 10 points, we have to take Canisius in this spot who are 7-4-1 ATS

Official Play: Canisius -1

Side Bet: Over 147.5
