North Texas vs. Prairie View A&M Prediction

This matchup is a clear contrast in talent and overall team depth. The North Texas Mean Green have been one of the most disciplined defensive teams in the country, holding opponents under 62 points per game. Prairie View A&M has struggled to keep pace against elite opponents, allowing nearly 90 points per game.

Expect the Panthers to compete early behind Joseph’s scoring and Wells’ rebounding. However, I expect North Texas’ depth and defensive intensity to wear down Prairie View over 40 minutes of play. What makes this game particularly difficult for Prairie View is North Texas ability to control tempo and limit second‑chance opportunities. With Arnett protecting the rim and Stevenson leading the offense, the Mean Green can force Prairie View into contested shots and turnovers. With that said, I am backing the North Texas Mean Green to cover the 14.5 points in this game

Hans Geevers's Pick: North Texas -14.5
