Howard
Moneyline Pick: Howard (-165) - B+

Howard’s electric guard, Devin Norris, aims to snap his team’s three-game losing skid by rising to the challenge against a Morgan State squad enjoying a modest two-game win streak. Historically, Howard’s sharpshooting duo has thrived against Morgan State’s interior-heavy defense, consistently posting double-digit outings in their prior matchups. With both teams having passed the 41-game mark, the postseason significance magnifies each possession, especially for Howard trying to reclaim their momentum. Despite Morgan State’s recent mini-surge, Howard’s deeper rotation and home-court advantage make them a confident pick at -165 (Grade: B+).

Over/Under Pick: UNDER 162.5, (-110) - B


Morgan State’s top guard, fresh off leading his squad to back-to-back wins, faces a bruised knee that might limit his explosive first step, while Howard is trying to snap its three-game slide without the services of a banged-up forward in the starting lineup. Both teams are evenly matched in conference play, with Morgan State at 7-7 (13-17 overall) and Howard at 7-7 (12-19 overall), but past encounters highlight a standout Morgan guard who has racked up impressive point totals against Howard’s defence. Despite that scoring history, the injuries and recent struggles on both sides suggest a slower tempo and fewer buckets overall. We see value riding the UNDER with a B rating, offering a decent return at -110 odds if it cashes.

Spread Pick: Morgan State, +3 (-110) – B+
Though Morgan State’s leading guard has dealt with shooting inconsistencies, he remains active per official rosters, and his squad seeks to snap a two-game losing skid in a critical matchup against a Howard group trying to rebound from three straight defeats. With few reported injuries hampering Morgan State’s primary scorers, they come in sharper than a Howard squad that recently lost a key forward to a knee injury, reducing their frontcourt dominance. Historically, Howard has struggled to cover the spread at home against conference rivals, adding an extra edge to Morgan State’s push as the underdog. This bet sits at a confident B+ rating, and a successful $100 ticket stands to deliver an enticing return at -110, making it a solid wager for those trusting in Morgan State’s newfound spark.
