Coastal Carolina vs. North Carolina A&T Prediction

I’m on Coastal here. Nothing besides NC A&T being at home says to me this team should be favored. Coastal’s the better team on both ends of the floor and the Aggies do a good job of taking care of the rock, but that’s about it. The Chanticleers are still going to be a lower-tier team in the Sun Belt this season, but they’re still the better team here. Give me Coastal and the free bucket.
