Total Points Facts

  • Fifteen of the last 16 night games between Houston Christian and Texas A&M–Corpus Christi have produced a total of 143+ points.
  • Eight of Houston Christian’s last nine games at American Bank Center have produced a total of 145+ points.

Houston Christian vs. Texas A&M-CC Prediction

I’m going to side with Texas A&M-CC and lay the points here. Houston Christian just hasn’t been the same cover machine that they have been for much of the season, as the offense that’s been a problem for the better part of conference play for the Huskies is starting to cost them some games. This may feel like a look-ahead spot for the Islanders with a game against McNeese on deck, but the Islanders looked really solid defensively against Incarnate Word and at home, I think their defense rises to the occasion once again and pushes the Islanders to a double-digit win and cover in this one. I’ll lay the points with Texas A&M-CC at home in this one.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Texas A&M-CC -7.5
