Green Bay Phoenix vs Northern Iowa Panthers Predictions

Green Bay's road win raises the risk

University of Wisconsin Green Bay Athletics reports that the Phoenix improved to 2-1 with Sunday's 76-67 road win over St. Thomas. Ne'quan Brown had 17 points, five assists and four blocks, while Ahmere Carson scored 15. That result makes Green Bay a credible threat against a Northern Iowa team listed by SPF as a 3.5-point home favorite.

Northern Iowa enters at 1-1 behind three early scoring leaders. Carson Vis averages 17.5 points, while Greyson Uelmen and Isaiah Johnson-Arigu each average 16.0. Those numbers support Northern Iowa as the likely winner, but two games aren't enough to justify paying -166.

Betting verdict

SPF lists Green Bay at +3.5 and the total at 151.5. There is no confirmed starter, injury or line-movement information, so neither the spread nor the total has a sound betting case. Northern Iowa is the projected winner, but the wager is a pass.
