The Coppin State Eagles have played some tough competition this season as they lost to Miami, Virginia Tech, and Davidson, but they also have an impressive win over a good Loyola Chicago team which is a good sign heading into the easier part of their schedule. The Coppin State Eagles have been awful on the defensive side of the court this season as they are allowing an average of 78.2 PPG, but Mt. St. Mary’s is amongst the worst in the nation scoring the basketball as they rank 334th in points allowed. Coppin State has a good number of guys who can score the basketball as 4 different guys are averaging at least 10 PPG, and that will be tough for the Mountaineers to overcome. Coppin State is the better team in my opinion, and that will show with a slight road upset over Mt. St. Mary’s. Final Score Prediction, Coppin State Eagles win and cover ATS 70-67.
