North Carolina A&T vs William & Mary Prediction
The North Carolina A&T Aggies are a below-average team on both sides of the ball, and it's no wonder they're 1-9 SU in their last 10 games. The William & Mary Tribe are not only undefeated at home, but they've won four straight covers, with covers in three of those games. A William & Mary offense that averages more than 80 points and shoots 47 percent from the field should have a field day against this NC A&T defense. These are two teams heading in different directions. The William & Mary Tribe should win this game comfortably. I'll lay the chalk with the home team.
