New Orleans vs. Southeastern Louisiana Prediction

I’m on Southeastern Louisiana here. The Privateers were lucky to make the conference tournament by virtue of a tiebreaker, but the reality here is the Privateers had one of the worst defenses in the Southland this season. Southeastern Louisiana’s the better and more consistent team by a fair margin and I think the Lions take care of business to move on in the tournament. I’ll lay the points with Southeastern Louisiana here.
