Premium Pick

This is a home game for Maryland -- and a brutal matchup for Cleveland State, a team that can't shoot with only two players in double figures. The Vikings have struggled offensively and are averaging just 56.6 points while shooting 35.2 percent from the field, including 25.6 percent from three-point range. Cleveland State has a losing record overall and is winless on the road at 2-5 ATS in their last seven road games. The Maryland Terrapins have posted five consecutive victories, including double-digits wins over Illinois State and Rhode Island on consecutive days earlier this week to win the Cancun Challenge. Sophomore guard Melo Trimble is averaging 16.2 points and took MVP honors in Cancun after scoring 17 points on seven-of-seven shooting in Wednesday's 86-63 rout of Rhode Island. That's the same Rhode Island team that Cleveland State lost to, 73-45. Trimble is one of four Terrapins scoring in double-digits, along with senior forward Jake Layman (12.6 points per game), junior forward Robert Carter (12.2 ppg) and senior guard (and Duke transfer) Rasheed Sulaimon (12.2 ppg). College basketball teams that return two or more starters than their opponents are on a 43-11 ATS run when favored by 20+ points, and the Terrapins are 9-4-1 ATS vs. a team with a losing record. All Maryland in this one.
