The Central Arkansas Bears may be the better team here given they have better offensive depth and have shown more promise defensively, but I’m not laying chalk with a team that’s riding a four-game losing streak and is getting rocked in those losses. This is one of those games I wouldn’t touch personally, so if forced to pick, I’d grab the points and hope for the best.
