Iona at Canisius

Iona is tops in the MAAC conference, but this is a tough spot for them, playing their third straight road game. They are a .500 road team (6-6), and the Gaels are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 road games. Iona is also 1-5 ATS in their last six road games against a team with a winning home record. Canisius is in second place, one game behind Iona, so the players and the crowd will be fired up for this one. Canisius has won seven of nine games and comes off a loss, so they are in bounce back mode. The Golden Griffins are 4-1 ATS in their last five games following a loss, and 6-2 ATS in their last eight home games. The home team is 8-3-1 ATS in the last 12 meetings between these rivals. Iona is 3-12-1 ATS in the last 16 meetings, including 0-6 ATS in the last six meetings in Canisius. In addition, it will be a defensive game with so much at stake. Iona allows 43% shooting in conference play, and both are strong at defending the three-pointer. Play the home court, Canisius, and play Iona/Canisius UNDER the Total.
