NC-Greensboro Spartans
The Spartans finished in second place of the Southern Conference with a 28-6 record but fell to Wofford 70-58 in the conference tournament. The team wasn’t great against the spread this season, posting a 14-16-2 ATS record and failed to cover as an 8-point underdog in that matchup with Wofford.

Prediction
The over is 4-1 in the Fighting Camels’ last five games overall and cashed in 10 of the Spartans’ last 14 games coming off a loss. The over is also 4-0 in NC-Greensboro’s last four home games when playing a team with a road winning percentage of less than .400. Campbell surrendered 79 and 77 points, respectively in its last two games, while NC-Greensboro scored over 70 points in three of their final five contests. Both teams should supply more than enough offense tonight.
