The Hornets are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games overall & 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss. The Eagles are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 home games & 2-8 ATS in their last 10 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of less than .400.
Delaware State hasn’t been able to pick up many wins this season, however, the Hornets have been strong ATS and will have the best player on the court in Myles Carter. Coppin State has struggled on both ends of the court this season, ranking just 281st in scoring offense & 319th in scoring defense and as the Eagles will be without their best player in Jesse Zarzuela, I think Delaware State will be able to do enough with the large number of points to get us a cover. Good Luck!
