Charlotte vs UTSA Prediction
UTSA hasn’t had the easiest schedule in the world, but it also hasn’t shown much life defensively and is 3-9 ATS on the season. There’s little use for UTSA in its current form, and the Roadrunners have lost 3 times at home. Charlotte isn’t great in in its own right, but it’s won the games it’s supposed to win and just snagged a nice upset win over Wichita State. If Charlotte stays hot offensively, this should be a comfortable road win. I’ll lay the small number with Charlotte on the road.
