George Washington vs. Duquesne Prediction
I’m on Duquesne here. I know it’s a big number, but GW ending up where they are in the standings didn’t just happen by accident. This team hasn’t been great for the better part of A-10 play and Duquesne has been playing suffocating defense in recent games. A lot of GW’s games have been close throughout conference play against lesser teams, but the Revs can’t stop giving up points and I think that’s going to be problematic here. Give me Duquesne.
