The line has not yet been released for this one, so be sure to check back soon for updates to the odds. This should be a great game between the top two teams in the conference. Longwood's season has been incredible and it would be great to see the Lancers get to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in school history, but they have to go through the usual suspects in the Big South and it is not going to be easy. Longwood had to erase a 16-point deficit to beat USC Upstate and needed OT to beat NC A&T. I think the Lancers' luck runs out and Winthrop earns the win here.
