William & Mary Tribe Betting Preview

The Tribe were able to win 11 of their first 17 games this year, then beat North Carolina A&T, UNC Wilmington and Hofstra in three straight. A 2-5 run came over the next seven games featuring losses to Elon, Campbell, Hampton, Elon and Campbell again (with wins over UNC Wilmington and Northeastern). That would give the Tribe a 16-11 run through 27 games.

On Thursday versus Northeastern, William & Mary posted a modest lead in the first half and were sitting in the locker room at 35-32. The Tribe hit a 49-45 run the rest of the way and eventually took the victory 84-77 on their home court. Kilian Brockhoff led the team with 21 points, four rebounds and three steals while Jo’el Emanuel added 16 points with two steals.

Over on the North Carolina A&T side, they went 7-4 over their first 11 games. Next came losses to UNC Wilmington, Northeastern, Stony Brook, Elon, William & Mary and Hampton, then wins over Hofstra and Towson. Losses to Monmouth, Drexel, Charleston, Campbell and Charleston again came over the next eight games, giving the Aggies a 11-15 run over the first 26 outings.

Matched up against UNC Wilmington on Thursday the Aggies were drilled 44-26 in the first half. North Carolina A&T didn’t end up getting any closer than that on a 44-39 run the rest of the way and finished off the loss on the road 88-65 as the game concluded.

William & Mary vs North Carolina A&T Prediction

I’ll lean toward William & Mary. The Tribe took care of a struggling Northeastern team this week but it wasn’t a perfect game. William & Mary shot 45.5 percent from the field and 82.1 percent (32-of-39) from the line but also hit just 11.1 percent (2-of-18) from outside and posted a 34-24 deficit on the boards. The Tribe are just 1-2 in their last three games and 3-5 over their last eight outings total.

Back on January 15 when these teams last met the Tribe put up a 97-89 victory at home. In that game William & Mary shot a very nice 57.9 percent from the field and 56.3 percent (9-of-16) from outside. The Tribe had a 44-34 edge in the paint but did get out-rebounded 30-25 and surrendered 59.3 percent shooting on defense. William & Mary has some work to do for the road rematch but I like their chances.

Andrew Jett's Pick: William & Mary Tribe -6.5
