Army vs Bucknell Betting Prediction

These two teams come into this matchup with only one game separating them in the Patriot League standings and they have identical overall records. Bucknell will be at home for this game, but they have lost four games in a row and have scored 63 points or fewer in all four. Army has won four of their last five games, but they are only shooting 40.6% from the field and scoring 60.8 points per game this season. Neither team is very consistent on offense and I think we are going to see a pretty low scoring game here. Take the under in this matchup.
