After a ton of drama in the first two rounds, the 2022 Southland Conference Tournament concludes tonight with two unlikely contenders. The Texas A&M-Corpus Christi Islanders upset the Nicholls St. Colonels by seven points last night after going 0-3 against them in the regular season. The Southeastern Louisiana Lions did the same to the New Orleans Privateers. It was the fourth win in a row for the Lions who are favored in this game by 2.5 points over the Islanders. The road team won both of the previous two games these teams played this season. The winning team covered each of those previous games. Here are the odds for the Southland Conference Tournament final, courtesy of WynnBET Sportsbook.

Texas A&M-CC vs. SE Louisiana Prediction and Pick

The most recent game between these two teams was a convincing Lions win less than a month ago. The Lions covered after winning by nine points on the road. The Lions are 5-1 ATS in their last six games heading into today and have won seven of their last eight games straight up. Basically, they are rolling right now and I think they match up very favorably against the Islanders. While are a somewhat unknown program, they actually rank 30th in the nation in scoring. Worth noting that their defense is horrendous at 349th. But, they score enough points where that rarely matters as indicated by their 14-4 conference record. The reality is that teams just can't keep up with the Lions' pace and scoring ability. The Lions have scored at least 80 points in nine of their last ten games. The Islanders don’t have the offense to keep up and their defense is going to get rocked by the Lions. 

Pick: SE Louisiana -2.5 (-110) / Lean: OVER 146 (-110)
