Lipscomb vs Stetson Picks and Predictions – January 8, 2026
Lipscomb travels to DeLand for a Thursday night ASUN clash with Stetson at the Edmunds Center, tipping at 7:00 PM ET. The Bisons come in red-hot at 13–4 overall and 4–0 in conference play, sitting atop the ASUN standings. Stetson, on the other hand, is trending the wrong direction — 6–10 overall and just 1–3 in league play, now catching +11.5 at home.
The oddsmakers aren’t shy here. Lipscomb is laying double digits on the road, and the total sits at 150.5, suggesting pace and scoring. But this line may be more about current form than true talent gap. Let’s unpack it.

Lipscomb Betting Form
Lipscomb has been rolling. Four straight wins, all in ASUN play, and their offense is clicking — top-40 in adjusted efficiency, elite ball movement, and a balanced inside-out attack. They shoot 3s at volume (over 40% of attempts) and convert at 36%, but also score well at the rim thanks to strong spacing.
Defensively, they’re good enough. They don’t force many turnovers, but they contest well, rebound decently, and limit fouls. The biggest strength? Consistency. Lipscomb hasn’t played down to opponents this season, and that’s why they’re covering numbers like this.
Always check the Lipscomb injury report for any surprise absences, especially in a potential look-ahead spot. You can track full Lipscomb stats and results for betting angles.
Stetson Betting Form
Stetson’s in a funk. They’ve lost five of their last six and haven’t covered in four straight. Offensively, they’ve stalled — ranking bottom-third nationally in effective FG% over the last three weeks. They play at a moderate pace but lack consistent shot creation, especially when their primary guard is off the floor.
On defense, they give up high-efficiency shots — both at the rim and from three. Opponents are shooting over 37% from deep against them, and the rebounding gap has been a major problem in losses.
It’s tough to back a double-digit dog that isn’t defending or hitting shots, even at home. Monitor the Stetson injury report for any key changes, and check their Stetson schedule and stats to gauge how they’ve performed in similar spots.
Lipscomb vs Stetson Matchup Breakdown
This sets up as a shot quality mismatch. Lipscomb moves the ball, shoots clean threes, and finishes well inside. Stetson allows all of that. The question is whether Lipscomb locks in for 40 minutes or sleepwalks as a road favorite.
- Offensive Edge: Lipscomb scores from everywhere. Stetson can’t stop anything right now.
- Shooting Matchup: Lipscomb’s 3PT shooting should torch Stetson’s poor perimeter defense.
- Rebounding: Lipscomb has the edge here too — especially on the offensive glass.
- Tempo Control: Lipscomb doesn’t play fast, but efficient possessions will pile up.
One angle to consider is foul rate — Stetson fouls too much when trailing, and Lipscomb converts at the line. That can turn a 9-point lead into a 15-point cover in the final 2 minutes.

Lipscomb vs Stetson Predictions and Best Bets
I’m laying the points here. This is a spot where you back the better team with a clear efficiency and consistency edge. Lipscomb has covered multiple double-digit spreads already and isn’t prone to flat performances. They’re well-coached and balanced — a bad combination for a fading Stetson team.
As for the total, 150.5 feels a bit high. Lipscomb plays efficient, not fast. If Stetson can’t contribute on offense, this may drag under despite Lipscomb’s success. The blowout script also leans under — less urgency late, starters pulled.
Best Bet: Lipscomb -11.5 (-102)
