Hofstra vs Northeastern Prediction

Hofstra has 8 road wins this season and is 17-9 ATS on the season. Northeastern is 1-9 SU and ATS in its last 10 games. Hofstra smoked Northeastern earlier this month by 17 points. There’s just no reason to show Northeastern any attention. This team is awful on both sides of the ball and is 9-16 ATS. One team cashes tickets; the other doesn’t. Northeastern is also 2-8 SU at home, so that doesn’t even help. I’ll lay the points with Hofstra on the road. Northeastern has nothing going for it right now.
