Opening week of the college basketball season continues Tuesday night when the Rider Broncs visit the Providence Friars. Providence is coming off their best season in school history and will look to build off that in 2022-2023. Below is my college basketball pick for Rider vs Providence.
Rider vs Providence Betting Pick
This game will be played at Amica Mutual Pavilion at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, November 8, 2022.
Why Bet Providence
✅ Providence ended last season 6-2, in the last eight games, against the spread.
✅ At home, the Friars have built a fortress and they are unbeatable.
✅ Rider is not on the same level as the Friars and Providence will be a top 15 team most of the regular season. This should be no more than a scrimmage for the Friars.

In the offseason, Providence lost nine players for various reasons, but will welcome five transfers in and two three-star recruits to campus.
