Conference openers can be tricky spots to attack road favorites. Lipscomb despite only being 8-5 are large favorites today against Jacksonville. The Bisons have won six of their last seven games, and utilized a proper scheduling strategy. Early in non-conference play they faced the big boys in Arkansas and Kentucky. At the end they have had tune up games against non division one schools, including their last game against Asbury. Look for the Bisons to be sharp as a result against a Jacksonville team that is not as balanced offensively as a season ago.
