Samford vs Wofford Prediction
Wofford is a decent enough team to give Samford a scare when it plays to its full potential. The problem is we saw Samford take Wofford behind the woodshed last month, winning by 16 points while shooting 53 percent from the field. Samford will also be focused on this game after just suffering a bad loss to Chattanooga. Samford is a Southern contender with a top-20 scoring offense. I’d need more points to take Wofford seriously in this spot, especially after what we saw a few weeks ago. Give me Samford and the small chalk.
