When we last looked in on St. Joe's the Hawks were scoring a season-low 22 points in the second half during a loss to Davidson this past Wednesday.

I don't see the Hawks matching UMass in offensive production to stay within two possessions.

The Minutemen average six more points per game than St. Joe's. They are the ninth-best 3-point shooting team in the country. The Hawks have a below average defense.

St. Joe's is averaging 66.4 points in regulation during its last nine games. UMass has scored at least 71 points in 16 of its 22 games.

This has been a home team series, too, with the host covering six of the past seven times.
