American vs Drexel Prediction

In this American vs Drexel Prediction, Drexel is coming as -1.5 home favorites. Both teams are coming off opposite outcomes in their previous game and American has been winless this season with a struggling offense, ranking on the bottom-40 of the entire country. Drexel has been having offensive problems of its own and both teams average just 131.5 points per game combined with terrible shooting percentages, with both ranking outside the top-290 of the country in field goal percentage. I don’t see where the offense will come from in this game, so take the under in this one.
