South Dakota State at Canisius

The Canisius Golden Griffins have the nucleus of three returning starters to equal or build upon a breakout 20-win season, and an appearance in the CIT Tournament last year. Billy Baron and his 17.2 points per game are back, which gives the Griffins a dependable scorer and closer. South Dakota was hammered by St. Bonaventure in their early season trek through upper New York State, as they find life without Juevol Myles, their top scorer from last season, is going to be a challenge. The Coyotes have been challenged as well outside the conference where they are just 4-9 ATS in their last 13, and are overmatched again. The play is Canisius.
