Furman comes into this matchup after winning three of their last four games, but they are on the road for this one. The Paladins are shooting 46% from the field, but they were held to just 65 points last time out. Elon has alternated wins and loses over their last five games and while they are a high scoring team, they have allowed 84+ points in four of their last five. I think we will see plenty of points in this game, as Elon has gone over 151.5 in four of their last five. Take the over here.
