Duquesne at Western Carolina

Something will give here as both of these teams are off to good starts to open the season. Duquesne owns an impressive win over Iowa, but really struggled their last time on the floor vs. little-known Arkansas-Monticello, needing overtime to steal a two-point win. The Catamounts have taken three of four and lost, as expected, to Texas. What might be noteworthy here is that the Dukes beat Binghamton by 18 points while the Catamounts blew them out by 30, a common opponent, with the results very appealing to the Catamounts. Melquan Bolding won't play for the Dukes as after scoring 25, he broke his wrist and will miss four weeks or so, leaving a hole in the offense. The Dukes are not very impressive off a straight-up win at just 4-10 ATS in their last 14 and without Bolding, they could be in trouble here. I’m going with Western Carolina.
