Pick
I’m leaning towards Albany and the points here. I get why UNH is favored at home, but the issue I have is that neither team is blowing anyone away right now and New Hampshire isn’t some world-beater in the America East. Both teams are being outscored by around three points per game in their last five, so even with home court, I have to side with Albany and the points here.
