Niagara Purple Eagles vs. Howard Bison Prediction NCAAB in Basketball

Match Analysis: Niagara Purple Eagles vs Howard Bison – Prediction

Match Details

  • Date: 2025-11-22
  • Time: 9:00 PM UTC
  • Location: Cameron Indoor Stadium, Durham, NC

Game Overview

The Niagara Purple Eagles and Howard Bison both enter this late November 2025 NCAA basketball matchup with similar season records (Niagara 2-2, Howard 2-3). The game will be played at a neutral site, Cameron Indoor Stadium. Howard is slight favorite in the moneyline and spread despite having a slightly worse record. The teams have comparable offensive production but differ in shooting efficiency and turnover rates.

Key Factors to Consider

  • Niagara Purple Eagles average 66.5 points per game, shooting 43.5% overall and 37.8% from three, showing decent outside shooting but a lower scoring rank (340th nationally). Howard Bison average 74.4 points per game on 46.4% shooting, with a higher free throw percentage (75%) and more rebounds per game (32.6), indicating greater offensive efficiency and inside presence. However, Howard commits nearly 20 personal fouls and turns the ball over 14 times per game, which could be a liability.
  • No recent direct head-to-head matchup data is available for this season's meeting, limiting direct comparative insights.
  • No specific injuries reported for either team affecting key players at this time.
  • The game is held in Durham, NC at a neutral but relatively close site for Howard. Niagara travels approximately 491 miles, which could introduce slight fatigue or travel-related disadvantage.
  • Both teams are looking to improve early-season records. Howard's slightly worse record (2-3) may increase motivation to prove themselves against a similar 2-2 Niagara team, potentially favoring Howard’s urgency.

Duke Blue Devils vs. Niagara Purple Eagles Prediction NCAAB in Basketball

Match Analysis: Duke Blue Devils vs Niagara Purple Eagles – Prediction

Match Details

  • Date: November 21, 2025
  • Time: 12:00 AM UTC
  • Location: Cameron Indoor Stadium (Duke Home)

Game Overview

The No. 5 ranked Duke Blue Devils (5-0, 2-0 Home) host the Niagara Purple Eagles (2-2, 1-2 Away) in the first-ever meeting between these programs. This matchup is part of Duke's Brotherhood Run, which features games against teams coached by former Duke players. Duke head coach Jon Scheyer faces off against Niagara head coach Greg Paulus, both former Duke backcourt mates. Duke enters on a 5-game win streak after defeating No. 24 Kansas 78-66 in the Champions Classic, while Niagara seeks to find consistency on the road.

Key Factors to Consider

  • Duke has dominated opponents this season, averaging 92.4 points per game (ranked #23 nationally) while holding opponents to just 60.2 PPG (ranked #10 defensively). Duke's average score margin stands at +32.2 points (ranked #4 nationally). In their first half performances, Duke averages 42.4 points while opponents average just 28.8. Niagara, conversely, averages 68.3 points per game (ranked #67) and allows 66.5 PPG (ranked #301), indicating significant defensive vulnerabilities. Niagara's scoring margin is -1.8 (ranked #183), showing inconsistency. Duke shoots 38.6% from three (ranked #7) and 79.0% from free throw (ranked #12), demonstrating offensive efficiency. Niagara's shooting percentages are significantly lower at 36.7% from three (ranked #334) and 78.6% from free throw (ranked #364).
  • This is the first-ever matchup between Duke and Niagara. However, historically Duke ranks much higher in overall program strength and performance metrics. Duke's last season offensive rating was 11th-best in the nation (83.2 PPG) with 7th-best defense (62.8 PPG allowed), while Niagara ranked 313th on offense (68.5 PPG) and 156th defensively (71.4 PPG allowed). The disparity suggests Duke maintains a significant competitive advantage.
  • No specific injuries reported in available data for either team. Cameron Boozer (Duke's freshman) is healthy and performing at an elite level (18 PPG, 10 RPG, 5 APG in recent game vs Kansas), representing Duke's primary scoring threat.
  • Duke maintains a 4-game home winning streak at Cameron Indoor Stadium, a venue known for providing significant home-court advantage. The Brotherhood Run context adds motivational elements for both coaches. Duke recently passed its first major test against a ranked opponent (Kansas), building momentum and team cohesion.
  • Duke seeks to extend its perfect 5-0 record and maintain its position in the top-5 rankings. Niagara needs a road victory to improve its 2-2 record and gain confidence in away games (currently 1-2 away). Greg Paulus faces his former program, adding narrative intrigue. Duke's coaching staff emphasizes continued excellence following the Kansas victory.

Predicted Outcome

Duke is heavily favored and possesses overwhelming advantages across all statistical categories. The Blue Devils' elite offensive efficiency, dominant defense, perfect record, and significant talent gap compared to Niagara suggest a decisive home victory. Duke's average point margin of +32.2 combined with Niagara's defensive vulnerabilities (allowing 66.5 PPG) indicates Duke should easily cover the 39.5-point spread. The game figures to be a one-sided affair with Duke controlling tempo and establishing dominance early.

Predicted Score: Duke 89, Niagara 48

Le Moyne Dolphins vs. Niagara Purple Eagles Prediction NCAAB in Basketball

Match Analysis: Le Moyne Dolphins vs Niagara Purple Eagles – Prediction

Match Details

  • Date: 2025-11-18
  • Time: 12:00 AM UTC
  • Location: Ted Grant Court, Syracuse, New York

Game Overview

Le Moyne Dolphins (1-3) host the Niagara Purple Eagles (2-1) in an NCAA Men's Basketball game. Le Moyne is entering this game on a 3-game losing streak with a 9-23 overall record and 6-7 at home last season. Niagara has a better start at 2-1 and finished 11-20 last season with a poor 3-13 road record. This game is vital for Le Moyne to halt its skid while Niagara seeks to build on a solid early-season momentum.

Key Factors to Consider

  • Le Moyne's recent form is weak, having lost their last three games, including a 94-80 loss at UMass. Niagara has won two of three games, including road wins over Delaware State and Binghamton. Le Moyne averages significant second-chance and turnover points but has struggled defensively, allowing 75.3 PPG. Niagara averages 66 points per game but allows 66.3 PPG, showing better defensive balance.
  • There is limited recent explicit H2H data, but historical matchups show competitive games. Both teams seem familiar with each other, but the current season and form suggest Niagara holds a slight edge.
  • No specific injury reports are available for either team ahead of this matchup as of now.
  • Game is played at Le Moyne's home court in Syracuse, which should provide some home-court advantage given Le Moyne’s 6-7 home record last season. The time zone and weekday timing (Monday evening EST) provides both teams a standard schedule.
  • Le Moyne is highly motivated to stop a three-game losing streak. Niagara aims to capitalize and extend their winning momentum early in the season.

Match Analysis: Niagara Purple Eagles vs Delaware St Hornets – Prediction

Match Details

  • Date: 2025-11-10
  • Time: 11:30 PM UTC
  • Location: Gallagher Center, Niagara Falls, NY

Game Overview

Niagara Purple Eagles host Delaware State Hornets in an early-season NCAAB matchup. Niagara enters with a 1-1 record, splitting their opening games, while Delaware State is 0-2 after tough road losses to Temple and Syracuse. The game is set for Monday night at the Gallagher Center, broadcast on ESPN+.

Key Factors to Consider

  • Niagara is averaging 63 points per game and allowing 71, shooting 41.7% from the field and 77.8% from the free-throw line. Delaware State is averaging 65 points per game but allowing 83, shooting 44.4% from the field. The Hornets have struggled defensively, especially against stronger opponents, and have been inconsistent offensively, with turnovers and limited second-chance points. Niagara has shown moderate offensive efficiency but has also struggled defensively, giving up 71 points per game.
  • No recent head-to-head data is available for this matchup.
  • No significant injuries reported for either team at this time.
  • Niagara is playing at home, which may provide a slight edge. The game is being played in a smaller venue, which could impact crowd noise and atmosphere. Both teams are early in their season, so adjustments and chemistry are still developing.
  • Niagara is looking to build momentum after a split start, while Delaware State is seeking its first win of the season after two tough losses. Both teams are motivated to establish a positive trend early in the season.

Predicted Outcome

Niagara is favored to win this game, given their home advantage and slightly better defensive performance. Delaware State's offensive struggles and defensive vulnerabilities make it difficult for them to compete against even mid-tier opponents.
