A New Years Eve MAACtion matchup between Niagara and Quinnipiac and my model has the wrong team favored. I have Niagara winning by 1.5 points, so I'd jump on the +2 number while its still available and wouldn't go lower than +1. Quinnipiac has been playing well recently but Niagara's defense should cause problems for them. I think the Purple Eagles will able to get this done by slowing down the pace and playing in their style. Grab the extra points and look for Niagara to get its first conference win.

The Purple Eagles have been great ATS. They are 7-4 ATS including 6-2 ATS away from home. The Bobcats on the other end are 1-4 ATS at home. They are going to be without one of their best players, Savion Lewis, for the rest of the season. The Purple Eagles play at a very slow pace. The Bobcats have struggled in low scoring games. They are just 2-4 ATS in games that have had less than 145 points. This is the Bobcats first real test without Savion Lewis. The Purple Eagles defense will be able to hold the Bobcats enough to win this game straight up.
