Pythia's preview, written before tip-off

Presbyterian hosts St. Thomas (Minn.) on 2 November 2026 in an NCAA matchup that the Pythia model clearly favours the away side, giving St. Thomas (Minn.) a 76% chance to win versus Presbyterian's 24%. St. Thomas (Minn.) has won three of its last five games, including a 80-67 victory over South Dakota St. and a 68-53 win against Nebraska O., while Presbyterian has struggled, winning only one of its last five and losing its most recent outing to Winthrop 71-73. The projected score is 68-76, with a total of 144.1 points, and the home team faces a 2.5-point line that Pythia estimates a 30% chance of covering. The over-145.5 line has a 46% probability of hitting, and the game has a 4% chance of going into overtime. St. Thomas (Minn.) will look to extend its recent momentum against a Presbyterian squad that has been on a losing streak.
