Charleston Southern vs. Georgia Tech Prediction

I’m on Georgia Tech here. Charleston Southern is just not a good basketball team and what’s important for me when I’m betting an underdog is backing a team that’s going to hit their free throws and Charleston Southern’s the worst free throw shooting team in the country. I’ll side with Georgia Tech as more of a fade of Charleston Southern more than anything else.
