New Orleans vs Northwestern State Prediction
The Northwestern State Demons are the better team and should be favored, but I’m leaning toward the road dog. While the New Orleans Privateers have been awful for much of the season on both ends of the ball, they’re coming off upset wins over Lamar and East Texas A&M, easily their best stretch of the season. New Orleans was a double-digit dog against the Lamar Cardinals. Massive confidence-boosting performances for New Orleans. Northwestern State has been hit or miss lately and has failed to cover each of its last four games. New Orleans has also done its best work on the road, where three of its four wins this season have come. The underdog is also 6-2-1 ATS in the last nine games between New Orleans and Northwestern State. Give me the points with the New Orleans Privateers.
