Northern Iowa has long been a slowdown team that plays deep into the shot clock. They are attempting just 51 FG's per game on the season and at this point simply have not found the range at 41%. That makes a double-digit line appealing from the other side, in a low scoring game. Western Carolina is out shooting the Panthers at 44.4% on the season and should score enough to keep this one from getting away. They have rebounded nicely after a distasteful loss of 20+ at 5-2 ATS in their next game. The Panthers have been overrated at home where they have often let down against weak competition and are now 0-6 ATS in their last six vs. a team with a losing road mark. Western Carolina hangs tough here and gets the call.
