Incarnate Word vs East Texas A&M Prediction
East Texas A&M already beat IW on the road this season by 22 points. I’d assume it will like its chances at home. Incarnate Word is piling up the losses, doesn’t win on the road, and has covered one number over the last month. Incarnate Word is 8-16 ATS on the season and struggles mightily on the defensive side. East Texas A&M has covered 4 of its last 5 games and has been competitive against some of the better teams in the conference. East Texas A&M should be a confident group entering this spot. The line is soft. I’ll lay the points with East Texas A&M at home.
