Fordham vs. St. Bonaventure Pick
Fordham vs. St. Bonaventure Spread Pick
- Bonaventure (4 units)
Both teams have struggled a bit of late and hope to earn their first win in conference play on the season as they take the floor here. The Rams have been very good on the defensive end of the floor but they struggle when it comes to putting the ball in the bucket. Fordham is 0-2 on the road and hasn’t had success against above average teams. The Rams have five wins over teams ranked 300th or worse in the KenPom rankings and three over non-Division I foes. St. Bonaventure is 7-1 at home on the year and has beaten Fordham three straight times. Look for the Bonnies to take advantage of Fordham’s issues offensively to earn the win.
