Seattle U vs Fairfield prediction

Seattle should be favored because of the rest advantage, as it will play its second game in a row, while Fairfield will play for a third straight day. Seattle also cruised in the second half yesterday to give some guys a breather. With that said, this is a lot of points to throw a Fairfield team that can score the ball at an above average clip at all areas of the floor. Fairfield has had no issues scoring the ball in this tournament, and it’s up and down pace can give teams trouble when playing back to back days. This should be an up-tempo game that comes down to the final five minutes. Give me the Stags and the free buckets.
