Wright State had run off 11 in a row and got caught at home by Illinois State, a game in which they got caught peeking ahead to this showdown against Butler. If there is a team in the entire country that can go to Butler with confidence it is Wright State. They have simply owned Butler to the tune of winning 8 of the last 10, but more importantly, four of the last five. These teams typically play close games as 7 of the last 10, have come by eight points or less. Butler may have gotten caught themselves, dropping a home decision to a very good Drake team. Butler has been asked to do too much as they are just 4-10 ATS in their last 14 and the offense just doesn't produce enough points to cover the big spreads, as they are just 2-8 ATS in their last 10 as a double-digit favorite. These teams produced just 85 total points early in the season and in 7 of their last 10, the final point tally has been 116 or less. This is a ton of points to be giving a good team that has been highly effective against the Bulldogs, when the games are usually played in the 40s, and 50s. We'll grab the points here.
