Wisconsin Milwaukee at Cleveland State

Something has to give in this one. Cleveland State is 6-11, but has dropped its last eight games to Division One opponents. Wisconsin-Milwaukee is 0-8 on the road and obviously not the team they have been in the recent past. Cleveland State has been the door-mat in the Horizon Conference for several years and seeing them as a five-point favorite against anyone is laughable. Last weekend they played at Wisconsin-Green Bay and shot the lights out.  Hitting a sizzling 65.4% from the floor and connecting on 7-11 three-point shots to lead 44-31 at halftime. The team that came out in the second half was more like what we have seen the last several years from this team. They scored nine points on 3-20 shooting and 0-11 on three-point shots. Cleveland State went from a 13-point lead, to a double digit loser. We can't consider a play on them so we will back Wisconsin-Milwaukee to pick up their first road win.
