Norfolk State vs Delaware State Betting Prediction
I think I'll continue to support the Spartans. The Spartans have won six of their previous seven games, going 6-1 over that time with just one loss coming to Nevada. In that span, the Spartans have scored a respectable amount of points, scoring 66 or more in six of their seven games.
The Hornets, on the other hand, have failed to score 70 points in seven straight games and would probably struggle to stay up if the Spartans get going. Side with the Spartans in this one and bet on them to cover the spread tonight.
Pick: Norfolk State Spartans -11 (-112)
