High Point vs Seattle U prediction
You can argue High Point has been the better team this season, and the Panthers have more firepower on the offensive side. However, Seattle is the better defensive team and that’s key with both teams playing their third game in three days. Potential tired legs, High Point doesn’t want to have this aggressive Seattle team get into them and be physical. Also, Seattle has had to work less hard in its two games, while High Point was taken down to the wire by Arkansas State and had its starters log heavy minutes. Seattle should be the fresher team of the two. I’ll lay the bucket with the Redhawks.
