Some shops are even approaching -3.5. At DraftKings, Texas Southern is taking in 65% of spread bets and 85% of spread dollars, a sharp “low bets, higher dollars” bet discrepancy in their favor.

Texas Southern has the superior three-point shooting (34% vs 30%), free-throw shooting (73% vs 68%) and is better at forcing turnovers (72nd vs 200th).

Texas Southern has buy-low value as a short home favorite on a losing skid against a sell-high road dog on a winning streak.

Texas Southern is 7-3 at home. Bethune Cookman is 4-12 on the road.
