The Northeastern Huskies recently secured a much-needed victory against Drexel after a series of losses. Led by Rashad King and JB Frankel, the team is showing promise despite their current rating of 195th by KenPom.

Northeastern Expected to Prevail Against Towson in Home Showdown

In the previous matchup between Northeastern and Towson, the Huskies held a seven-point lead on the road before ultimately succumbing to the Tigers' dominance in the second half. With the upcoming game shifting to Northeastern's home court, a different outcome can be anticipated. Northeastern's experienced lineup is set to face a Towson team that ranks 13th in the conference, shooting a mere 30.8% from beyond the arc. It is likely that Towson will face scoring droughts during this road contest. Additionally, Northeastern has covered the spread in 5 of the last three head-to-head meetings with Towson. Based on these factors, it is reasonable to expect Northeastern to cover the spread in the forthcoming matchup.
