The Samford Bulldogs are having their best season ever at 22-3. That doesn't even guarantee them entry into the Big Dance as they may very well have to win themselves there. Samford is also 22-1 SU since losing to Purdue early in the season. This team has big expectations, and it is surprising to see despite lines stacked against them they are still covering at a high rate. Samford is 12-4 ATS in their last 16 games. Western Carolina is also having a strong season at 18-7. The Catamounts have hit a wall as they opened the season strong but over their last eight games they are 3-5. I like Samford to keep on rolling. Make the play on Samford.

Premium Picks
Samford at Western Carolina
Two teams with 15-2 records battle tonight and Western Carolina has won nine in a row. The Catamounts are 6-1 ATS their past seven lined games, including 64-52 over Mercer on Saturday. The Catamounts shot only 37 percent, but they held Mercer to just 32 percent and Western Carolina is #44 in the country holding opponents to just 65.5 points per game. That is important because they will be facing the leading scoring team in the nation as Samford averages 91.5 points against Division I schools. The Bulldogs lost their first two games of the season to Purdue and Virginia Commonwealth and then feasted on weaker competition. Western Carolina is undefeated in seven home games and Samford is 3-2 on the road. The Catamounts are just a slight favorite so go with Western Carolina on the moneyline.
