The Northern Iowa Panthers have had some good runs in the Missouri Valley Conference as well as the NCAA Tournament. This year appears like it could be special as the Panthers are out of the gate at 12-2 and have been unbeaten at home where they are 7-0. Unfortunately for their backers, the oddsmakers have taken notice, and the Panthers have dropped three straight to the number. Southern Illinois is riding a four game losing streak to drop one game under .500 at 7-8, but have been more than a +3.5 point dog just once this season and got the cover. The Salukis have shown significant value on the road where they are 10-3 ATS in their last 13, while the suddenly overrated Panthers are 0-4 ATS in their last four at home. This is too many points, so take them and play on Southern Illinois.
