Bryant at St. Francis 3/4/20 - College Basketball Picks & Predictions

The Bryant Bulldogs are set to visit DeGol Arena in Loretto, Pennsylvania for the quarterfinal round of the Northeast Conference Tournament, and they will face the St. Francis (PA) Red Flashes. The Bryant Bulldogs come into this matchup with a 15-16 record, and they will be looking to continue their success after winning their recent road game against the Wagner Seahawks, 80-59. Leading the way for the Bryant Bulldogs was senior guard Adam Grant as he recorded 29 points. Senior forward Juan Cardenas had a productive outing for the Bulldogs as he pitched in 14 points, 9 rebounds, and 4 assists.

The Bryant Bulldogs had a good shooting game against the Wagner Seahawks as they connected on 25 of their 51 field goal attempts (49%), and they were good from behind the three-point line (44%). The Bryant Bulldogs lost the turnover battle against the Wagner Seahawks (19-11), but they dominated the Seahawks in the rebounding department (45-24).

The St. Francis (PA) Red Flashes come into this matchup with a 20-9 record, and they will be looking to rebound after dropping their recent road game against the Robert Morris Colonials, 78-68. Leading the way for the St. Francis (PA) Red Flashes was senior guard Keith Braxton as he recorded 24 points and 12 rebounds. Joining Braxton in the backcourt was senior guard Isaiah Blackmon who had a productive outing for the Red Flashes as he pitched in 21 points.

The St. Francis (PA) Red Flashes struggled shooting the ball against the Robert Morris Colonials as they connected on 22 of their 57 field goal attempts (38.6%), and they were slightly worse from behind the three-point line (23.8%). The St. Francis (PA) Red Flashes won the turnover battle against the Robert Morris Colonials (11-10), and they edged out the Colonials in the rebounding department (37-33).

The St. Francis (PA) Red Flashes just missed out on the top seed in the NEC with a 13-5 record, but they shouldn’t have much of a problem advancing against a Bryant team they beat by 20 points at the beginning of February. The Red Flash are one of the top-scoring teams in the country as they are averaging 77.5 PPG, and they have an explosive scoring duo as Isaiah Blackmon is averaging 19.2 PPG and 5.4 RPG while Keith Braxton is pitching in 17.2 PPG and 7.5 RPG. The Bryant Bulldogs have been dependent on Adam Grant as he is the only one averaging over 10 PPG, and I see that as a problem against a good team like St. Francis. St. Francis gets to host this game due to being the highest seed, and they have had a ton of success there with an 11-2 record. Final Score Prediction, St. Francis (PA) Red Flashes win and cover ATS 75-63.
