Morehead State vs Tennessee Tech Prediction

Tennessee Tech is averaging 73.6 points per game and they are going to have no issue running up the score here. I really don’t trust this Morehead State defense that is giving up 71.7 points per game. Tennessee Tech is going to score way more than their season average, and that is going to be enough. Look for Tennessee Tech to win this game by at least eight or nine points. Back Tennessee Tech against the spread.
