There is no line for this game as of yet, but it’s an early tip-off so we may not have a ton of time to get the bet in. With that said, I’m leaning towards Sam Houston State. The Bearkats have perennially been a solid bet and have had a lot of an easier time scoring than Boston U has, despite the win on Sunday. Give me the Bearkats here.
