Coppin State Betting Outlook

The Eagles have actually seen a good amount of action this month with six games already in the books. If there’s one trend to gather so far from those outings, it’s a prevalence for combining to hit the over in the betting odds with their opposition. They’ve gone over the oddsmakers line in four of six games and pushed once.

Only once so far this year has Coppin State managed to hold opponents to less than 78 points. It may have something to do with the pace they play at. According to KenPom, their adjusted tempo is 74.6 which ranks 10th overall in the entire nation. Opponents have attempted an astonishing 71 or more field goals in four of six games.

Guard Sam Sessoms has been the offensive catalyst for Coppin State. He’s averaging a career-high 22.5 points and 5.8 assists per game this year. He hit a game-tying triple in the closing seconds of the fourth quarter against Tennessee Tech to force overtime and converted a game-winning and-one to secure a 90-85 win.

Towson Tigers Betting Analysis

While the Eagles need to find a way to keep other teams from scoring, the Towson defense has been a key to their perfect 4-0 start. They’ve give up more than 62 points just once and have held opponents to an average of just 61 points per game this season.

In contrast to Coppin State, they have gone over the betting total in just one of their four games. While they don’t play in the same conference, these intrastate combatants have seen a fair amount of one another over the last decade, including each of the past two seasons, with Towson holding a definitive edge.

In the Tigers last win against UNC Greensboro, fifth year senior, Nicolas Timberlake scored almost half the team’s points. The swingman poured in 26 of Towson’s 56 points in a slim three point victory. He’s averaging 21 per game, but there’s a noticeable drop off in production from there with the Tigers’ next highest scorer averaging just 11.8 points per game.

Coppin State vs Towson Pick & Prediction

It’s been exactly a decade since Coppin State last beat Towson. Although the Tigers have won the last five meetings, three of those games were decided by five points or less with one of them needing an extra session to decide the winner.

The most lopsided game in recent memory between these two squads came just last year when Towson spanked Coppin State 89-75. Early returns this season indicate that Towson is once again the stronger side and that’s why they’re the chalk in the college basketball odds.

This game will be a battle between two teams who play different styles, but even last year, buckets were easy to come by when these two hooked up. Last game’s meagre 56-point output for Towson seems like an outlier when considering they averaged 71.3 points per in their first three contests.

Against a lackadaisical Coppin State defense, we expect them to rebound and an exciting high scoring affair between these two Maryland squads. Our best bet suggestion in this matchup is to pick the over with Towson likely running their win streak in this rivalry to six games.

Pick: Over 142.5 (-110)
