Game preview & prediction

Saint Josephs Hawks host Wagner on 17 November 2026 in the NCAA, and the Pythia model names the Hawks as the clear favourite, rating them 95% to win largely because of their undefeated 3-0 record, 77.3 points per game and 70.0 allowed per game, placing them 98th in the league, while Wagner sits 324th with a 1-3 record, 66.2 points per game and 73.2 allowed per game. The Hawks have gone 2-0 at home, averaging 74.5 points and 65.0 allowed, and are 4-1 over their last five games, including a 83-80 win over South Florida away, a 67-57 win over Lafayette at home and a 82-73 win over Longwood at home; Wagner has gone 0-3 on the road, averaging 49.3 points and 80.7 allowed, and is 1-4 over their last five, with a 117-51 home win over Bryant & Stratton, a 41-83 loss to Uconn away and a 57-83 loss to Miami (FL) away. Their head-to-head history is not listed. Pythia projects a 82-63 score, 145 total points, a 95% chance the Hawks will cover the home line and a 5% chance Wagner will win, with a 1% chance of overtime. The Hawks' recent 83-80 away win over South Florida shows their resilience.
