10* Small School BURIAL
(NCAAB) Saint Peter's vs. Marist, 01/26/2017 2:30 PM, Score: 81 - 65
Point Spread: -5.00 | -105.00 Saint Peter's (Away)
Result: Win
St Peters is a very good team on the road. They got off to a brutally slow start in their last outing at home against Rider, but the Peacocks were able to build off of their elite defense in the second half as St Petes went on to beat the Broncs by a final score of 56-51. St Peter's has become one of the more dangerous threats in the MAAC working their way up the stands to sit 11-9 overall and 7-3 in league play. The Marist Red Foxes have been one of the lesser performers in the MAAC in recent years and Marist has had a tough time finding wins again this season standing 6-14 overall and 3-6 in conference. The Red Foxes have been weak on both ends of the court this season ranking 267th in the nation in scoring average and 324th in total defense. Saint Peter's has shown their defense travels very well as this group continues to over-perform their Vegas odds away from their home court. Marist has had a tough time staying competitive in many of their games both on the road and at home this season. We like Saint Peter's to build off of the momentum they showed down the stretch in their last outing as they go on the road to cover this small spread.
