Chattanooga vs. Bradley CBB Prediction:
This matchup features two competitive teams with strong postseason performances. Bradley’s home-court advantage and the return of key player Darius Hannah provide them with a slight edge. However, Chattanooga’s recent success against higher-seeded opponents indicates their capability to challenge the Braves. Considering these factors, I’m taking the Mocs to cover the 3.5 at Bovada.lv.
