A battle of John Thompon's sons means that Ball State is going to leave it all on the floor. Don't underestimate sibling rivalry. Younger son Ronnny doesn't possess the talent that his older brother does, but he'll have his team ready to play. Georgetown is the big name but they haven't played big the past two games, losing both against the spread. They lost outright by 13 points to Old Dominion as a 12 point favorite which has to worry you. In Ball State's one test against a high-caliber opponent this year, Kansas, they covered the 20 point spread. They held the Jayhawks to 64 points. Look for Ball State to hang in there.
