Can the state of Alabama score more?

Last season, Alabama State was very good on defense, but the offense couldn’t score enough and that caused them to finish with only a 13-19 record. Alabama State has four returning starters and they believe the shooting has improved this offseason.

They also entered the transfer portal and the main goal was to get more shooters. Micah Simpson averaged 13 points while shooting 44.3 percent from the field at the community college. Jalen Keago averaged 13.3 points at Pensacola State College last year and the scoring should be strong again. If they want to have any chance in this game, some of those new players are going to have to light up the scoreboard to give them a chance.

UNLV is a veteran team

UNLV is an experienced team and they have a lot of confidence that this team can get them over the edge. Last season, UNLV finished with a 21-13 overall record and they went 12-6 in the Mountain West. DJ Thomas Jr. is back for this team and he’s going to be one of the best point guards in the entire country. If you haven’t heard of him yet, you probably should, because he looks like a star.

Jailen Bredford came from Oral Roberts and last year he averaged 14.6 points per game. Jaden Henley was also brought in after playing for Oral Roberts last year. One thing to keep an eye on this season and in this game is the development of Pape N’Diaye, who was the 149th ranked recruit in the recruiting class and there are high expectations for him.

Alabama State vs UNLV prediction

This total is too high. Alabama State’s defense was good last season and they take it a step further in this game. UNLV will still likely win this game quite easily, but I don’t expect them to run up the score. UNLV’s defense will also be strengthened and Alabama State’s offense will really struggle to get the offense going like it did last year. Back the under to make money here.
