Arkansas State vs Montana prediction

Arkansas State have the advantage after not having to play on Sunday. Montana barely escaped Presbyterian yesterday despite being 7.5 point favorites, and now this is a quick turnaround with an afternoon tip. Arkansas State is playing its best ball of the season with wins in 8 of its last 10 games, and it’s covered 7 of those games. Throw in the rest advantage and this should be a win for Arkansas State. Montana has had defensive issues at times this season, and that’s not ideal with the pace Arkansas State plays at. I’ll lay the bucket with the Red Wolves.
