Hampton Pirates vs. North Carolina A&T Aggies Prediction
I’m on Hampton here. I get the case to be made for the Aggies if they were at home or catching more points here. However, Hampton’s just been playing the better basketball right now, and on a neutral floor, I think the Pirates are the better team to be able to get the job done in this one. Give me Hampton.
