Both teams are 1-3, but Central Arkansas was destroyed its first three games losing to Saint Louis, Butler and Baylor by an average of 37.3 points before beating Oral Roberts. The Bears were 5-19 last season and lost their leading scorer Rylan Bergersen, who averaged 16.9 points and they are picked to finish last in the Atlantic Sun West Division. Central Arkansas is shooting only 37.0 percent overall and 29.4 percent on 3-pointers. New Orleans returns three starters from the 2020-21 squad, including Derek St. Hilaire, who averaged 12.3 points per game and scored 21 points in the Privateers' loss to Rice on Friday. New Orleans won the last meeting by 25 points in February. The Privateers have covered all three lined games this season, but go with New Orleans on the moneyline as a Max Play.
