High Point vs Winthrop Prediction
Winthrop should get the benefit of the doubt at home, where it played its best ball. However, Winthrop has failed to cover 6 of its last 7 games, with includes awful losses to Longwood, North Dakota, and Coastal Carolina. High Point hasn’t lost a game in a month and has a scary good offense leading the charge. You can make a strong argument that the better team is an underdog here. I’ll ride the hot hand and grab the free bucket with High Point.
