The two best teams in Atlantic 10 meet Friday as the Saint Louis Billikens and Richmond battle for Top 25 spots and look to boost their respective resumes toward tournament time.
Richmond blew out a lowly Saint Joseph’s squad their last time out 79-56. The Billikens are coming off a close loss against the Dayton Flyers.
Saint Louis Billikens
Saint Louis’ defeat against Dayton wasn’t all that surprising given they had not played in over a month due to COVID concerns. Still, there’s a reason this team still finds itself in the Top 25.
Saint Louis sports the 34th most efficient offense in the nation. The Billikens average 82.4 points per game, crash the offensive and defensive glass at a high level, and shoot 39.5 percent from deep.
Saint Louis is one of the most experienced teams in the country. The senior guard duo of Javonte Perkins and Jordan Goodwin combines for 34 points a game. The Billikens have seven players averaging at least 6 points per game.
Saint Louis also has a solid defense. The Billikens force a lot of turnovers, but struggle to defend the three point line a bit.
Richmond Spiders
Richmond, who was in the top 25 at one point this season, has won three of its last four games. They’ve lost each of their last two to Saint Louis, which adds incentive to this one.
Richmond is a good offensive team with a very balanced starting lineup. All five of Richmond’s starters average double figure points a game.
The Spiders are similar to the Billikens in that they have a boatload of experience on their roster. The Spiders have the 21st most efficient offense in college basketball with senior guard Blake Francis leading the way with 16.6 points per game.
The Spiders will need another potent defensive outing like they had against Saint Joseph’s. The Spiders have struggled this season at times on the glass and will have to tighten up their rebounding against a Saint Louis team that crashes the glass frequently.

Free Saint Louis Billikens vs. Richmond Spiders NCAAB Prediction:
I’m siding with the Spiders here in what should be a good game to watch. If there’s one team that can match Saint Louis offensively, it’s the Spiders. Look for Richmond to snap a two-game skid against the Billikens.
