- My selection is on Alabama State minus the points over Delaware State at 6:30 pm ET on Friday.
This HBCU Challenge matchup sets up well for Alabama State to rebound after a tough loss to Norfolk State on Thursday. While Delaware State enters riding a three-game winning streak both SU and ATS, including an upset of Grambling State yesterday, this game presents a significant challenge against an Alabama State team that has faced a considerably tougher schedule this season.
Alabama State has shown flashes of offensive explosiveness, as evidenced by its 103-point outburst against UT-Martin just one game prior to the Norfolk State loss. That scoring potential gives them a distinct edge against a Delaware State team that has often struggled defensively against higher-quality competition.
The Hornets of Alabama State are positioned to take advantage of Delaware State potentially regressing off their recent emotional win. Look for Alabama State to impose its will and secure a decisive victory in this neutral-site contest.
Take Alabama State. Projected score: Alabama State 76, Delaware State 66.
