Towson is a .500 road team (7-7) and heads to Omaha for this CIT contest. After finishing second in the Colonial during the regular season, Towson had its sights aimed higher than this, but lost to William & Mary 75-71 as a favorite in the CAA Tournament semifinals. They run into a dangerous Murray State Racers team that is aptly named - they race, all right, to the tune of 77.5 points per game (#37 in the nation) while shooting .475 as a team (#30 overall). The Racers are 5-1 ATS in non-conference games, plus 5-1 ATS in their last six games vs. a team with a winning percentage above .600. This program is used to winning: The Racers won the last game, 86-62, to secure the program's fifth-straight 20-win season. They can play defense too, forcing 14 Nebraska-Omaha turnovers and turning them into 24 points. The Racers are 9-3-1 ATS in their last 13 games overall. Take Murray State.
