East Tennessee State vs Wichita State Prediction

This honestly is not my favorite game on the board, but I am not sure how you lay this number with this Wichita State team. The Shockers defense is giving up 70.4 points per game and they are going to really struggle to defense here. ETSU’s offense is going to put on a show here, and that will be enough for them to get the job done here. Back East Tennessee State against the spread here.
