St. Peter's at Fairfield

The Fairfield Stags looked like they were a player in the MAAC alongside Siena, but have seemed to fall back after losing at home to the Saints - maybe even a bit beforehand. Since before Christmas, which covers 12 games, the Stags show a 7-5 record, but that doesn't begin to tell the story of their struggles. Conference doormat Marist has been the only decisive game they have had, winning that one by 20 points. The other six wins were all close calls by 7, 6, 5, 4, 3 and 2 points, almost like a countdown. The Peacocks meanwhile, are starting to come on strong with six wins in their last seven games and are a dangerous dog here. The Peacocks are playing their best in the doggie role as they are now 20-6-1 ATS in their last 27. Every dog has his day and I like this live dog, so will go with St. Peter's here.
