MD Eastern Shore vs Virginia Prediction
Virginia has the potential to win this game comfortably, but this is a weird game sandwiched in-between Dayton, Texas, and with Maryland on deck. It wouldn’t be surprising to see Virginia sleepwalk a bit in this one. MD Eastern Shore defends at an above-average level and has big upset wins over Binghamton and Longwood, and it covered against Nebraska. Overall, MD Eastern Shore competes and has cashed 5 tickets this season. Thick line. I’ll take a stab with MD Eastern Shore on the road.
