North Carolina A&T Aggies vs. UNC Wilmington Seahawks Prediction

I’m on North Carolina A&T in this one. I get the case to be made for UNC Wilmington, as the Seahawks play their best ball at the Trask Coliseum. However, UNC Wilmington has not won a game by this margin all season, and the Aggies have been really good as a dog this season. I think UNC Wilmington wins, but NC A&T covers.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: North Carolina A&T +13.5
