New Jersey IT has had a tough opening schedule facing Miami of the ACC and a Saint Peter's squad that was second in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference last year. American is a big favorite but was just 7-11 in the Patriot League last season and has dropped two of its first three in the new campaign. The offense is averaging 65.7 points while shooting 40.8% from the field and 28.7% from long range. These teams met a year ago, a 58-53 American win as both teams struggled offensively. Look for another close one and back the big dog. Play NJIT.
