SIU Edwardsville at Murray State

Premium Pick

Murray State seems to always be winning a lot of games, as this low major team has been in the Big Dance pretty often. The Racers appear poised to make another NCAA Tournament as they enter this home game vs. SIU Edwardsville at 18-4 and a huge favorite. The Racers, however, bring some question marks into this game as they are just 3-2 in their last five contests, and the two losses were by a combined 33 points and they are just 1-5 ATS in their last 6. SIU Edwardsville at 8-15 but two of the eight wins have come in their last three and they have won three of five games. However, with SIU coming off a huge 25-point loss, they will be motivated and Murray State may not take them seriously at all. This is a game where the Racers could be caught sleeping. Play SIU Edwardsville on the spread and throw a small flier on the moneyline.
