I get the allure of points with a home dog like High Point and Furman is a team that I’ve been high on for some time now, but I’m leaning towards the over in this matchup. These are two teams that have had no issues scoring this season and the defense hasn’t been a priority on both sides. Getting up and over a total in the 140s should be cake here. Give me the over.
