Furman vs Penn State Prediction | College Basketball Betting Picks
Furman opened the new college basketball season with two comfortable wins, winning at home against North Greensville and Belmont. This is a team who experienced a loss against Chattanooga in the Southern conference championship game at the buzzer, so this season is a revenge tour for them. Expect them to make a statement Thursday night in South Carolina.
Penn State beat a good Butler team the last time they took the court, 68-62. Fifth-year senior Jalen Pickett led the way for the Nittany Lions, scoring 15 and hauling down 10 rebounds and 11 assists. Experience does not lack any for the Nittany Lions. This is going to be a physical game in Charleston.
Our college basketball betting Furman vs Penn State prediction tonight will be Penn State -2 at BetOnline.
For what it’s worth, the ESPN Matchup Predictor gives Penn State a 56.9% chance to win.
