Meanwhile, the Pride are 36-17-1 ATS in their last 54 road games and 6-2 ATS in their last eight overall. Hofstra is 6-1 ATS in their last seven Tuesday games.
PICK: I’m going to take a stab on Hofstra here. The Pride have scored well over their last five games with 77 or more points in four of those. Towson has been hitting the offense well themselves however, with 69 or more points in eight of their last nine. This one looks to me like a higher-scoring game and should be a pretty fun matchup. I think Hofstra has enough offensive talent to bang out a cover, though.
