Texas A&M-Corpus Christi vs New Orleans Prediction
The New Orleans Privateers have lost eight of their last nine games, and they’re dreadful at both ends of the floor. New Orleans shoots 38.5 percent from the field and allows an average of 85.4 points. No, thanks. New Orleans allowed 100 points against Vanderbilt and has allowed 80-plus points in seven of its last nine games. The Texas A&M-Corpus Christi Islanders have challenges of their own, and I don’t love them on the road. However, Texas A&M-Corpus Christi shoots the ball well enough to have a field day against this New Orleans defense. This should get ugly. Give me the Islanders in a double-digit road victory.
