The Portland Pilots are probably the better team here, but I’m looking at the over instead of a side. Morgan State is on fire through four games and is actually eighth in the country in points per game. Through four games, the Portland Pilots are top-100 in both points per game and field goal percentage. Morgan State isn’t stopping anybody, either. Lots of points here. Give me the over.
