Elon vs Campbell Betting Prediction
Elon comes into this game on a four game losing streak and they only have one win in conference play so far this season. The Phoenix are allowing 77.3 points against per game on defense and they have allowed at least 80 points in four straight games. Campbell is only scoring 67.5 points per game, but their defense has been very solid this year. We saw Campbell only score 43 points in their last game and despite Elon’s poor defense, I think we are going to see a lower scoring game here. Take the under.
