Florida A&M is 5-0 ATS in their last 5 road games and 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games against a team with a winning percentage below .400 while the under is 4-0 in their last 4 games overall. Alcorn State is 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games overall and 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games against a team with a losing record while the over is 4-0 in their last 4 Monday games.
I get why Alcorn State’s favored at home, but plain and simple, we’re getting points with a Rattlers team that’s been the hotter of the two in conference play and has also been flat out money on the road this season. Alcorn State winning this one at home wouldn’t shock me and I can see it happening, but too much value to pass on with Florida A&M and the points here.
