Bethune-Cookman vs Prairie View A&M Prediction
Prairie View A&M will like its chances at home, where two of its four wins have come this season, but I’d need more points to really consider the Panthers. Prairie View A&M has failed to cover five of its last seven games. Bethune-Cookman has done a better job of finishing games this season and is a profitable 12-9-1 ATS on the year. Prairie View A&M is one of the worst defensive teams in the country, and it’s hard to take seriously. The line is soft. I’ll roll with Bethune-Cookman on Saturday afternoon.
