Pick

I’m backing North Texas here. Am I all that keen on laying points on the road in a late-season conference matchup? Not really, but the Mean Green are the better team with better defense playing better basketball coming into this game and I don’t see this game being any different. I haven’t been able to trust Charlotte’s offense all year long and I don’t think I’m going to start now. Give me the Mean Green laying the bucket.
