The Citadel Bulldogs vs. Western Carolina Catamounts Prediction

I’m on the Citadel and the points here. Historically this has been a tight fixture, with the last three games all being decided by 3 points or less, with 2 needing OT. Western Carolina hasn’t looked spectacular in a lot of their recent games and I think the Citadel could get them here. Give me the Bulldogs and the points.
