Lipscomb Bisons Betting Preview

Lipscomb got off to a reasonable 2-1 start this year with wins over Duquesne and Wofford. After three straight losses to Belmont, Western Kentucky, and Kentucky, the Bisons recovered with wins versus Jackson State and Alabama A&M.

Matched up against the Bulldogs on Saturday, Lipscomb didn’t have many issues. The Bisons were up 44-21 by the break and cruised from there on 38 more points in an 82-44 blowout. Will Pruitt was the top scorer with 19 points, six rebounds, and four steals.

Chattanooga Mocs Betting Preview

Over on the Mocs’ side, they lost to USC, Saint Mary’s, and Austin Peay in their first three outings. Chattanooga has since beaten Morehead State, Southeast Missouri State, Johnson University TN, Tennessee State, and Bryant.

In the Bryant game, the Mocs held a modest two-point lead by halftime but eventually won 84-76 after a 45-point run in the second half. Makai Richards was the top scorer on the team with 17 points and five boards off the bench.

Why the Chattanooga Mocs will win

• Chattanooga has won each of its last 11 home night games against non-conference opponents.
• Lipscomb has lost 13 of its last 17 road night games against non-conference opponents.
• Lipscomb has lost the first half in three of its last four night games against non-conference opponents.

Why the Lipscomb Bisons will win

• Lipscomb has won five of its last six games against the Southern Conference.
• Chattanooga has lost the first half in three of its last four games against the ASUN Conference.

Lipscomb vs Chattanooga Prediction

I’ll lean toward Chattanooga, but this one’s obviously a coin flip. The Mocs are on a nice run right now and coming off a solid all-around outing versus Bryant. Chattanooga shot 49.1 percent from the field in that one with 35 rebounds and 19 team assists. During all five games of this current win streak, the Mocs have scored 72 or more points.

As for Lipscomb, they drilled a middling Alabama A&M team in their last outing and have been playing pretty well themselves over the last two games. The Bison have been below 69 points in three of their four of their losses, but they’ve hit 77 or more in all four of their wins. Lipscomb could follow right along here if they’re shooting well, but I’m still leaning slightly toward the Mocs.
