The Bulldogs are 5-15-1 ATS in their last 21 road games and 1-4-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall. The Trojans are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 Tuesday games. The under is 30-12 in Bulldogs last 42 overall. The over is 8-3 in Trojans last 11 overall.
The Troy Trojans are the better team and this line is probably accurate, but they’re not exactly blowing the doors off teams through 10 tries, and they’ve been in close games against subpar competition. The Alabama A&M Bulldogs have offensive issues, but they’ve also hung around in some of their losses, and a lot of their competition has come against teams better than Troy. I’m not laying this much chalk. It’s Alabama A&M or pass.
