Lipscomb vs Southeast Missouri State Prediction
The Lipscomb Bisons are the more talented team and have had a tougher schedule, which doesn’t hurt, but this is a lot of points for an early game that’s usually sloppy and sluggish. Also, the Southeast Missouri State Redhawks have covered 5 straight games and are 5-1 ATS on the season. We’ve also seen the Redhawks outright win two of their last three games as an underdog. I’ll take my chances with the team that’s cashing tickets. Give me my points.
