Charlotte 49ers vs USF Bulls prediction
This line is a bit strange when you consider USF has played just as well as Charlotte and is 10-2 SU at home. Yes, the Charlotte 49ers are probably the more talented team and has a ridiculous defense. I get it. However, USF is also 13-5-2 ATS on the season, which makes the Bulls one of 11 teams to have a cover percentage of 72 percent or greater. Should be a fun game, but I’m grabbing USF and the small chalk.
