Arkansas-Pine Bluff vs Alabama A&M Prediction

The good news for both of these teams is at least one of the teams has to come away with a victory. That being said I don’t really trust either of the teams so we will take a look at the total. I do expect that this game is going to be higher scoring. Both of these teams have refused to play a whole lot of defense, and they are both going to really struggle here. Arkansas Pine Bluff is giving up 87.3 points per game. This game is going to be a shootout, and the over is going to end up cashing.
