Iona Gaels vs Fairfield Stags. The NCAAB pick for this game is the Iona Gaels. Iona’s offense is strong, ranking 103rd in scoring offense and 64th in assists per game. However, the defense let up some points, ranking t-204th in scoring defense.

Fairfield’s defense is strong, ranking 110th in scoring defense, while the offense underperformed, ranking 187th in scoring offense and 245th in 3P-FG percentage coming into this game. Fairfield isn’t a horrible club, but they lost their previous three matches (two at home) by an average of 11 points per possession, and none of their opponents have the skill that Iona does.

Iona is one of the top mid-major schools in the country, and I believe the Gaels will pull away in the second half and cover this mid-range road spread because they are just a stronger team on both sides of the floor. The Iona Gaels will win to a predicted score of 75-67.
