Free Murray State Racers vs. Tennessee State Tigers NCAAB Prediction:
4* Free CBB Betting Pick: Murray State -14.5
Murray State comes into this game as the heavy favorite on the road. Even though the Racers have played a majority of their games with double-digit point spreads, they still have an ATS record of 13-7-1. On the other side, Tennessee State is no stranger to entering a matchup as a significant underdog. Most recently, they took on Belmont as 15 point underdogs, dropping the game by 27 points.
Look for Murray State to take care of business on the road, as they will cover the 14.5 point spread. Not only will the Racers put up enough points to cover, they also boast one of the best defensive units in college basketball. I expect the Tigers to have a tough night scoring the ball.
