Elon vs Monmouth Prediction
Elon looks more and more like a team that’s given up on the season, as it’s 2-8 SU in its last 10 games. That includes an inexcusable loss to NC A&T as 7.5-point favorites at home. Elon allowed 102 points in that losing effort. Monmouth has been more competitive over its last 10 games and is at home, where it’s won 9 games. We’re not being asked to lay much and Monmouth needs this game in terms of CAA seeding. Elon is going nowhere fast. I’ll lay out the points.
