Brett's Thanksgiving College Basketball Premium "HAMMER DOWN" 3-game special - Game 2
Mississippi State -1.5
The Louisville Cardinals & Mississippi State Bulldogs will square off at the Baha Mar Convention Center this Thursday night in the Bahamas Championship and I think Mississippi State will have no issue covering this small spread.
Louisville comes into this game with an overall record of 3-1, however, this is still a team that lost at home to Furman and just hasn’t looked great on the offensive side of the floor.
The Cardinals are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games overall & 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up win. The Bulldogs are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games after allowing less than 50 points in their previous game, however, are just 3-7 ATS in their last 10 neutral site games.
Mississippi State hasn’t play much in terms of competition, however, this is still a defense that ranks 7th in scoring defense and has shot the ball well as they currently rank 14th in FG% & 3rd in 3P-FG%.
Mississippi State has shot the ball well to start the season, as they currently rank 14th in FG% & 3rd in 3P-FG% and as I just don’t think Louisville has the offense to keep up with the Bulldogs in this one, I think Mississippi State has no trouble covering this small spread.
