Trends

Alcorn State is 5-2 ATS in their last 7 Monday games and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following an ATS loss. The over is 5-1-1 in Alcorn State’s last 7 games. Grambling is 7-3 ATS in their last 10 Monday games. The over is 5-2 in Grambling’s last 7 games and the under is 6-2 in their last 8 Monday games. The underdog is 4-1 ATS in these two teams last 5 head to head meetings.

Pick

Both of these teams come into this game with a 6-2 record in the SWAC and they are tied for 2nd place in the conference standings. Grambling has the better metrics in just about everything and they will be at home. Grambling has played the more difficult schedule in their last five games, but both teams did lose to Southern. I can’t trust Alcorn State’s 38.9% shooting from the field, so I am taking Grambling at home.
