Samford at E. Tennessee State

The East Tennessee St. Buccaneers will host the Samford Bulldogs this afternoon. The Buccaneers have had a very good season at 19-7. The issue for these small conference teams is that they must win their conference tournament to earn an NCAA Tournament bid. Samford is 14-12 on the season, but have their hands full in this one. The Buccaneers are a good offensive team, and over their last six games, they have scored 84 or more points in four of them, and four of their last five have played OVER the total. Samford has been in many high-scoring games, which has resulted in them going 9-3 OVER the total in their last 12 games. I like the OVER in this one.
