I’m not running to the window to back either of these teams, but it’s fair to say the Alabama A&M Bulldogs are playing some of their best ball of the season, and they win at home by an average of 4.5 points. The Grambling State Tigers lose on the road by an average of 12.6 points while shooting 39.2 percent from the field. You could argue this line should be steeper. Give me Alabama A&M.
