Alcorn State Braves vs Portland Pilots Point Spread Picks

Pity Alcorn State opening the new season with 15 straight road games! They've already played two of them, losing 85-67 at Washington State and 69-66 at Seattle. This team was 6-13 last year and has lost 11 of its last 13 road contests. Portland covered in the opener against the Pac 12 losing at Arizona State. They forced 19 turnovers and trailed just 31-25 at the half as a +22 dog. They come off an easy win over Willamette scoring 122 points and play their second straight home game. They like to push the tempo which will make things even worse for the road-weary visitors. Play Portland on the moneyline.
