Virginia vs Manhattan Prediction

The Virginia Cavaliers are getting the benefit of the doubt because they’re Virginia, but they’ve been shaky out of the gate and are coming off two losses where the offense couldn’t get going. Manhattan has two wins in its last three Games as an underdog and has some scoring depth that could give the Cavs some fits. Yes, Virginia should win, but this line is a bit steep given Virginia’s scoring issues. Give me the Jasper’s and the points.
