Boston University vs Bucknell Betting Prediction

I think I'll go with the Terriers in this situation. I wouldn't touch this one either, though. We should have a decent game coming up, although neither team is coming off a very impressive defeat.

The Terriers will need to press the issue offensively in this game because they have scored 67 points or fewer in three straight games. The Bison are in a similar situation, having scored just 108 points in total during their last two games. All things considered, I believe the Terriers can win this game and cover the spread.

Pick: Boston U Terriers +1 (-110)
