Robert Morris Colonials vs Cleveland State Vikings prediction
The Cleveland State Vikings are the better team and being at home matters, but I’m not sure if they’re this much of the better team. Cleveland State has issues defensibly at times and Robert Morris can knock down the three ball which gives them a punchers chance. Also, Cleveland State has failed to cover 6 of its last 7 games, so excuse me if I’m not thrilled to lay these big numbers. The Robert Morris Colonials have covered 5 of their last 8 games and won outright their last game as an underdog. Give me the points.
