Tennessee Tech won just four of their first 14 games this year over Tennessee Wesleyan, Truett-McConnell, East Tennessee State and KY Christian. The Eagles are 4-1 since then with wins over Eastern Illinois, TN-Martin, Morehead State and Tennessee State.

ANDREW’S FREE PICK

I’ll probably stick with Tennessee Tech here. The Eagles are currently riding a four-game win streak. They’ve scored 70 or more points in all four of those games and I like Tennessee Tech to keep that run going in this one. As for Little Rock, it’s been a bumpy ride over this five-game losing streak. The Trojans have failed to hit 70 points in all five of those outings. Ultimately I like Tennessee Tech to take the cover/win here, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Little Rock in it most of the way.
