The Norfolk State Spartans are getting the benefit of the doubt for obvious reasons. Norfolk State has yet to lose a game at home this season, while Maryland-Eastern Shore has yet to win a game on the road. On paper, Norfolk State should comfortably win this game. However, Norfolk State is 9-15-1 ATS on the season and has failed to cover 9 of its last 10 games overall. Also, let’s not pretend like we didn’t see Maryland-Eastern Shore didn’t beat Norfolk State a month ago by 9 points and 9 point underdogs. This is a lot of points. I’ll take a stab with the Maryland-Eastern Shore Hawks.
