Jackson State vs Mississippi Valley State Prediction

Mississippi Valley State has been one of the worst basketball teams in the country for years now and this season is no different. Mississippi Valley State is also just 11-17 ATS despite being big underdogs nightly, so there’s no betting value here. Jackson State is not only playing its best ball of the season, but it beat Mississippi Valley State a month ago, 92-44. Jackson State is also a profitable 18-12 ATS on the season. There’s only one way to go in this spot and I’m telling you now it’s not Mississippi Valley State. Give me Jackson State to end the regular season on a six-game winning streak.
