Arkansas State vs Bethune Cookman Betting Prediction

Bethune Cookman comes into this matchup playing pretty well over the last few weeks and they had a pretty successful conference season. The Wildcats last two losses came against Grambling, who won the SWAC Tournament. Arkansas State was also 11-7 in conference play and they are scoring over 78 points per game this season. The Red Wolves should be able to score plenty of points, but their defense is a mess, allowing over 77 points against per game. I do think Arkansas State will get the win, but I can’t lay this amount of points with their defense. Take Bethune Cookman with the points here.
