Fairfield at Drexel

The Fairfield Stags expected to among the elite of the Metro Atlantic come March have shown some weaknesses early. The upgraded schedule has pinned five losses on them, but efforts against some teams they should handle easily not happening as intended. The latest is a six point home win vs. new Hampshire and four point struggle on the road vs. a poor Niagara team. Drexel enters at 6-4 but have only seen their homecourt twice as we head to the first of the year where they are their usually tough selves and, at 2-0, have now won 10 of 11 here dating back to last season. The Dragons have the pedigree vs. Metro Atlantic at 7-1 ATS in their last eight. I respect the Stags ability to stay close, but in the end homecourt rules and I'll am on Drexel for the moneyline.
