Northwestern State Demons (6-2) vs Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles (8-0)

Northwestern State is one of the most undervalued teams in the country under first year head coach Corey Gipson as the Demons are a perfect 7-0 ATS this season. Northwestern State has three upset wins as an underdog, including taking down TCU 64-63 as a 22.5-point road underdog. Gipson infused the program with talent by bringing in three Missouri State transfers in Demarcus Sharp, JaMonta’ Black, and Isaac Haney. The trio form one of the best backcourts in the Southland Conference and are averaging 14.8, 11.6, and 13.6 points per game, respectively. The Demons’ backcourt has also gotten valuable contributions from freshman Jalen Hampton, who is averaging 6.6 points and 6.1 rebounds across 21.6 minutes per game. My math model only favors Southern Mississippi by 2.26 points in this game so the Demons remain underrated. Grab the points with the live home underdog and invest with confidence.
