Gardner-Webb vs Longwood Prediction
You can make an argument that Longwood is the better team, and it’s at home, where 11 of its 16 wins have come. I get it. However, I’m not laying chalk with a Longwood side that’s lost five straight games which includes losses to Radford, Charleston Southern, and Presbyterian in the favorite role. Gardner-Webb isn’t lighting the world on fire in its own right, but the Bulldogs did beat Longwood a few weeks ago while scoring 92 points, and they’ve won the last three meetings overall. Give me Gardner-Webb and the points.
