Texas State vs Old Dominion Prediction 

Texas State comes into this matchup on a three-game losing streak and they will be on the road for this contest. The Bobcats are shooting 46.6% from the field this year, but they have allowed 80+ points in three of their last five games. Old Dominion has won two of their last three, but they are just 1-3 in their last four home games. The Monarchs are shooting just 40.2% from the field this year and they have scored 63 points or fewer in three of their last five games. I don’t like either team in this matchup, but I don’t want to back a team shooting just 40% from the field. Take Texas State here.
