Grambling State is coming into this game with a 20-14 record this season and they were the best team in their conference this season at 14-4. They have won their last 3 straight games with all 3 of those wins coming in the SWAC Tournament and they were dominant in those as well, winning each of their last 2 games by 9+ points. They have also won 9 of their last 10 games and their defense has been great in these. They did not allow more than 66 points in any of their last 3 games and even allowed 53 points or less in 2 of those games. Their offense has also been much better recently as they have scored 74+ points in 3 of their last 5 games. They are going up against a Montana State team that is 17-17 this season and were only 9-9 in their conference this season. They won their conference tournament to earn this bid and they have been playing well recently as they have won their last 4 straight as well as 5 of their last 6 games, but they still struggled a lot in their conference this season as they were a middle of the pack team and they would not have earned a bid here if they did not win their conference tournament. Their defense has also been much worse in their recent games as they have allowed 70+ points in each of their last 3 as well as 4 of their last 5 games. Grambling State has been a very consistent team in their conference all season as they have been dominant and they are going to get up for this game with some good defensive play with the tournament spot on the line here. Grambling State will cover the spread in this game.
