Elon vs Hampton Prediction
Hampton has played its best ball at home this season, so I considered the free bucket. However, Hampton has serious issues scoring the ball, and it makes it difficult to get behind this squad against decent teams. Elon is the more talented team and has won 5 games on the road. Now, Elon has had some ugly losses lately, so nothing would surprise me either way. Still, Elon is the better team that’s shown us more this season. I’ll lay the bucket if forced to pick.
