UNC Greensboro vs The Citadel Prediction
UNC Greensboro may be the more talented team, but it’s also failed to cover 6 of its last 7 games and is now 7-13 ATS on the season. The Citadel has seen 6 of its 7 wins come at home, and it’s been on an upset tear all month. The Citadel beat Furman, VMI, and Western Carolina as massive underdogs over the last few weeks. UNC Greensboro just doesn’t play a lick of defense, so this isn’t a group I’m excited to back in the favorite role, especially on the road. We also saw these teams play a couple of weeks ago, and the game went into overtime. Give me The Citadel and the points at home.
