North Carolina Central vs James Madison Prediction
North Carolina Central has had issues scoring on the road all season and has failed to cover 5 of its last 7 games overall. North Carolina Central has scored no more than 67 points in each of its last 7 road games. Not ideal going up against a James Madison side that can shoot healthy from the field. James Madison has covered 3 of its last 4 games, and that includes a couple of upsets over FIU and Towson. James Madison should be feeling good about itself at the moment, and this is a game it should cruise. Thick number, but it says a lot about NC Central. I’ll lay the points.
