Troy vs UL Monroe Prediction

The UL Monroe Warhawks have not only lost nine of their last 10 games, but they’re just 5-11 ATS despite being big underdogs most nights. UL Monroe isn’t playing well on either side of the ball and has five home losses already, so it’s not like home court can help. It also doesn’t hurt that the Troy Trojans have won four road games this season, so this isn’t a team that’s going to be intimated of the moment. The UL Monroe Warhawks are awful and hard to get behind in their current form. The line is thick, but it’s thick for a reason. The only option here is to side with Troy in a blowout road win. Give me the Trojans.
