The Kennesaw State Owls aren’t a good basketball team, and they get torched on the defensive side, so I’m not excited about backing them here. However, the Nebraska Cornhuskers are one of the worst teams in a power conference, and I’m certainly not laying double-digit chalk with them in any situation. So, it’s Kennesaw State and the points or pass. Nebraska is not a good team.
