The Butler Bulldogs sure put themselves on the map with a pair of NCAA Tournament Championship appearances over the last two years. While they took heavy losses to graduation, there is still plenty of talent around. This is a very well coached team, and they have taken on an aggressive schedule and are on improving. Cleveland State has a gaudy 14-3 record through 17 games. We saw this last year with this team, which started 15-1 on a soft schedule and finished 11-8 in their last 19. The Vikings’ record is looking better than their performance vs. the line where they are 8-18 ATS in their last 26 - a true testament of their soft schedule. The Bulldogs are riding high at home vs. a team with a winning road record now at 11-3-1 ATS. Play on Butler.
