The Paladins are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 road games and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games overall. The Spartans are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games overall. The under is 5-0 in Paladins last 5 overall. The under is 6-2-1 in Spartans last 9 overall. The home team is 11-5 ATS in the last 16 meetings.

The UNC Greensboro Spartans are probably playing the better basketball right now, but you can argue Furman is the better team overall, and the Paladins just beat the Spartans a couple days ago by 19 points. UNC Greensboro is really good at home and should put together a better effort this time around, but Furman is a good enough team, especially on the offensive side of the ball, to be intrigued in the underdog role. I’ll grab the bucket.
