New Orleans vs Lamar Prediction

I’m not excited to lay double-digit chalk with a subpar team in the Lamar Cardinals. This has more to do with how bad the New Orleans Privateers are. New Orleans shoots well below 40 percent from the field and doesn’t play a lick of defense. New Orleans has also failed to cover seven of its last 10 games. Basically, New Orleans holds little to no betting value and isn’t a team you should be looking to back. New Orleans is dreadful on both sides of the ball. Give me Lamar and the chalk as a fade of the Privateers more than anything.
