Quinnipiac at Marist 3/1/21 - College Basketball Picks & Predictions

The Quinnipiac Bobcats are set to visit McCann Arena in Poughkeepsie, New York for a MAAC clash against the Marist Red Foxes. The Quinnipiac Bobcats come into this matchup with an 8-10 record, and they will be looking to rebound after dropping their recent road game against the Marist Red Foxes, 76-67. Leading the way for the Quinnipiac Bobcats was senior forward Jacob Rigoni as he recorded 23 points and 5 rebounds. Freshman guard Luis Kortright had a productive outing for the Bobcats as he pitched in 17 points, 12 rebounds, and 4 assists off the bench.

The Quinnipiac Bobcats struggled shooting the ball against the Marist Red Foxes as they connected on 21 of their 64 field goal attempts (32.8%), but they were slightly better from behind the three-point line (34.1%). The Quinnipiac Bobcats were even with the Marist Red Foxes in the turnover battle (9-9), but they were outrebounded by the Red Foxes in the rebounding department (41-40).

The Marist Red Foxes come into this matchup with an 11-8 record, and they will be looking to continue their success after winning their recent home game against the Quinnipiac Bobcats, 76-67. Leading the way for the Marist Red Foxes was freshman guard Ricardo Wright as he recorded 13 points and 7 rebounds. Junior guard Raheim Sullivan had a productive outing off the bench for the Red Foxes as he pitched in 10 points and 4 rebounds.

The Marist Red Foxes had a good shooting game against the Quinnipiac Bobcats as they connected on 24 of their 54 field goal attempts (44.4%), but they struggled from behind the three-point line (34.5%). The Marist Red Foxes were even with the Quinnipiac Bobcats in the turnover battle (9-9), but they edged out the Bobcats in the rebounding department (9-9).

These two teams are sitting fairly even in the MAAC this season with Marist coming into this game with a 9-8 record and Quinnipiac coming in at 6-8, and I expect this game to be much closer in the 2nd game of this doubleheader as Quinnipiac shot poorly. The Bobcats were able to receive a solid outing from their leading scorer Rigoni (12.6 PPG), but freshman guard Tymu Chenery will need to get more involved as he only scored 5 points. The Bobcats are one of the top-scoring teams in the conference this season as they rank 3rd in scoring while also ranking 3rd in three-point shooting, and I expect them to settle in here and win this game. Final Score Prediction, Quinnipiac Bobcats win and cover ATS 73-69.
