Texas A&M-Commerce Lions vs Incarnate Word Cardinals prediction
Texas A&M-Commerce Lions beat Incarnate Word a couple of weeks ago, but now they’re on the road, where they’ve had little to no success this season. The Incarnate Word Cardinals have played their best ball at home this season, where 5 of their 8 wins have come, and they were competitive in that first meeting. Neither team is winning or covering much this season, but I’ll still lay the bucket with Incarnate Word if forced to pick.
