Robert Morris is 1-6-1 ATS in their last 8 road games and 0-5-1 ATS in their last 6 games following an ATS loss while the over is 4-0 in their last 4 games following an ATS loss. Green Bay is 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 Thursday games and 6-2 ATS in their last 8 home games against a team with a losing road record while the under is 4-0 in their last 4 games overall.
I get the case that could be made both ways as this is a conference battle and I’m not overly enthused with the prospects for either side this season. Instead, I’m going to side with the under here as I think this is just going to be an offensive struggle like it has been for both sides for much of the season. Give me the under in this one.
