What to Know
The #23 St. Bonaventure Bonnies will play host again and welcome the Canisius Golden Griffins to Reilly Center, where tip-off is scheduled for 5 p.m. ET Sunday. St. Bonaventure will be strutting in after a victory while Canisius will be stumbling in from a defeat.
The Bonnies took their game against the Siena Saints last week by a conclusive 75-47 score. St. Bonaventure got double-digit scores from four players: Kyle Lofton (17), Jaren Holmes (17), Abdoul Karim Coulibaly (12), and Dominick Welch (11).
Meanwhile, Canisius ended up a good deal behind the East Carolina Pirates when they played this past Friday, losing 83-71.
St. Bonaventure is the favorite in this one, with an expected 20.5-point margin of victory. Those taking them against the spread are banking on an outcome similar to that of the team’s contest last Tuesday, where they covered a 19.5-point spread.
The Bonnies were close but no cigar when the teams previously met two seasons ago as they fell 61-57 to the Golden Griffins. Maybe St. Bonaventure will have more luck at home instead of on the road? Watch the matchup and check back on CBS Sports for all the details.
