WIN

This game is for the Horizon League Championship, and the only way into the NCAA tournament for Wright State - they simply have to win. This is a home game for Wright St. where they have been nearly perfect beating Butler by 12 points here, and winning all but one on the season. Wright St. has been 26-9 ATS the last three years, and 9-2 this season. They have also won their last 10 home games by double digits or more, and are 17-3 in their last 20 games. Butler made some noise early, by starting 23-2. They have since been just 4-3. They struggled against Loyola just to get to this championship game, winning by a single point in OT. They needed a 95% effort from the FT-line to win that game. Butler has allowed the opponents in their three losses to shoot over 50% from the floor, and over 40% from three-point range, and their defense is not clicking right now, and they are not a dangerous offensive team. Look for Wright St., the better team at home, the better team lately, to win this one.
