UNC Asheville Bulldogs vs High Point Panthers prediction
The UNC Asheville Bulldogs are winning games, and they’ve won 6 of the last 10 meetings against High Point, so there’s value with the road dogs in this spot. However, the High Point Panthers are more efficient on the offensive side and have the horses to blow teams out of the water. High Point is also 12-2-1 ATS on the season, so they’re simply not a team I’m looking to step in front of in the betting market. High Point has covered 8 of its last 10 games overall. Yeah… I’ll ride the moneymakers until the tickets stop cashing.
