California Baptist vs Southern Utah Prediction
The California Baptist Lancers are probably the better team, but that’s not saying much. I know it’s probably hard to back a Southern Utah team that’s lost eight of their last 10 games. However, the Southern Utah Thunderbirds have seen seven of their nine wins come at home. California Baptist has also just lost to Utah Valley and Tarleton State in the favorite role. The California Baptist Lancers are also just 5-14 ATS on the season. I have a hard time laying points with the road team. The Southern Utah Thunderbirds are a mess, but they’re at home, where they play their best ball. I’ll grab the points with the Thunderbirds.
