Pick

I’m leaning towards Mississippi Valley State here. The Delta Devils are not a team I rush to back in any way, shape or form, but the fact of the matter here is that the Prairie View A&M Panthers have one of the best defenses in the SWAC, but also have one of the worst offenses and can rely on their defense to get the job done a bit too often, making it hard to cover these bigger sized numbers. MVSU has also found a way to cover the last three meetings between these two teams and I think they bag another cover here. Give me the Delta Devils and the points here.
