I'm taking N'Western St +9.5 because Little Rock's fouling gives the Demons a way to stay within single digits.
Northwestern State attempted 65 free throws in its three Division I road games. Little Rock has allowed 99 across its three games this season.
The Trojans sent VCU to the line 48 times, Southeastern Louisiana 22 times and New Mexico 29 times. That matches the foul pressure Northwestern State showed against Baylor, Mississippi State and Murray State.
Little Rock has also struggled to keep Jalen Lyn on the floor. He fouled out in 12 minutes against VCU, and Travis Ford called keeping him on the floor essential after foul trouble in both opening games.
