Lindenwood vs. Southeast Missouri State Prediction

I’m on Southeast Missouri State here. Normally I could consider fading a team like Southeast Missouri State as a big favorite in a potential look-ahead spot, but the RedHawks need to stay focused on the task at hand because a win here still keeps some breathing room atop the OVC for them. This is also a revenge game for Southeast Missouri State after losing the first meeting earlier this year, so I’ll roll with the RedHawks for the win and cover at home in this one.
