Maryland Eastern Shore vs Howard

Howard
Defensive woes could push the total higher than expected
Grade B+: Over 149 Total Points

Howard’s up-tempo style thrives in transition, with the Bison using their speed and athleticism to generate easy buckets, especially against weaker defences like Maryland Eastern Shore’s. Meanwhile, UMES—sometimes called the Hawks—has struggled on offense but may find opportunities against Howard’s occasional lapses in perimeter defense. With the Over/Under set at 149, the game script suggests enough scoring to push the total past the line, especially if Howard dictates the pace. The pick is the Over 149, graded B+, with a $75 potential return for bettors expecting a fast-paced battle.
