Loyola-Maryland vs. Coppin State Prediction

I’m on the under here. We’ve seen Coppin State held to 55 points or less in 6 of their 8 games this season and if that holds true here as well, I’m not expecting enough production from Loyola-Maryland to go over, even if the Greyhounds cover. Give me the under here.
