Central Arkansas is good at home. But the bottom line is this: there are too many points for the Bears to be laying to Eastern Kentucky in this Atlantic Sun Conference matchup. The two teams just met three weeks ago at Eastern Kentucky. That betting line was in the pick range. Eastern Kentucky beat Central Arkansas, 79-75, in overtime. The Colonels won despite shooting eight fewer free throws than the Bears. Both teams shot 43% from the field. Central Arkansas's poor 3-point shooting was a major factor, as the Bears missed 33 of 43 3-pointers. Central Arkansas ranks 225th in 3-point shooting. Eastern Kentucky ranks 124th in 3-point accuracy and averages more points per game than the Bears. Take Eastern Kentucky.
