This line is a bit confusing, as the Alabama A&M Bulldogs have shown more life on defense this season, and they’ll have arguably the best player on the floor for this contest. Jalen Johnson is a potential double-double whenever he takes the court. The Jackson State Tigers have been on the road all season and while their schedule hasn’t been a cakewalk, they’ve had major issues offensively. I can’t back Jackson State in the favorite role. Give me the Bulldogs and free bucket.
