Marist vs Saint Peter's Prediction

Saint Peter's is coming into this game playing very well recently with 3 wins in their last 4 games. They have been having a great season and have been playing well against conference opponents as they sit in 2nd place of their conference with an 8-3 conference record. Marist has been doing the opposite recently as their season has gone downhill in their conference games, sitting near the bottom with a 3-8 conference record. Saint Peter's also plays very well at home and they play well on defense in their games keeping their opponents from scoring a lot of points in their games. Marist has also lost 4 straight games coming into this one and their last 2 were road losses but they kept the game within 10 points each time. Saint Peter's is the much better team here and will win this game at home but Saint Peter's does not blow a lot of teams out and with Marist playing hard recently they might keep this game a little close as well.

Notable Quotes

 
“They just junked it up — and I don’t mean this in a demeaning way, and it wasn’t like the 1-3-1 was particularly great. Clearly, it’s not something they do. But it just threw us off enough, and that’s what he was willing to do. When you’re down that big, I’m sure he’s thinking, ‘Let me throw something out there, and if it works, I stick with it, and if it doesn’t work, I get out of it, what’s the harm.’ It was a good move by him, and gutsy by him. And it hurt us.” - John Dunne after a loss against Siena.
 
 
“That was the focus all week in practice. We knew Shavar and Papas were shooting over 40 percent from the 3-point line. We knew we had to run them off the 3-point line and contain them off the dibble, too. We were locked into that all week. It was really just talking to each other. Coach (Shaheen Holloway) said if we talked, we can’t mess up.” - Daryl Banks on their win against Monmouth.
