Tennessee Tech vs Lindenwood Prediction 

Tennessee Tech comes into this matchup trying to snap their four-game losing streak, but they will be on the road for this game. The Golden Eagles are shooting just 43.4% from the field and they have allowed 78+ points in three of their last four games. Lindenwood has won three of their last four, but two of those wins were against non-D-1 teams. The Lions only have two wins against D-1 opponents and I really don’t like the schedule they have played. Take Tennessee Tech on the road.
