Lindenwood has 6 road wins this season, but it also has recent bad losses to SIU Edwardsville and Southeast Missouri State. Tennessee State beat Lindenwood by 10 points a few weeks ago on the road as 4.5-point underdogs. I’d assume Tennessee State will be even more comfortable at home, where it has 8 wins. Tennessee State hasn’t had much recent covering success, but this line isn’t crazy. We’re laying a couple of buckets. At home, I’ll side with Tennessee State.
