LIU vs Air Force Prediction

The Air Force Falcons are the better team and should win, but they’ve been sluggish offensively through two games and did lose as big favorites already to North Alabama. The Long Island University Sharks should be the more motivated side given they don’t get these chances often, and they’ve shown some spark offensively through a couple of games. The hook could be key for us in this spot. Give me LIU and the points.
