Pick
I’m backing the over in this one. I’ve been riding Charleston heavy as of late, but I do think that Towson will be able to provide a stiffer test here and obviously the same will be said for the Tigers as Charleston is a bit of a step up from Delaware. This has been an over matchup for the past few seasons and just because it’s the conference tournament, I don’t expect us to deviate from that here. Give me the over.
