Chicago State has not won a game since prior to Christmas, and at 4-27 they are one of the worst teams in the country. They seldom get lined games, so often they are staked very high by oddsmakers, and their 95-217 SU record in their last 312 games is one reason why. Despite that, the oddsmakers know they have to give them plenty of help, and they are 13-10 ATS during the period when their games are lined, including 4-1 ATS in their last five, and 3-1 ATS this season. While they don't look good, that tends to work to their advantage. CS Bakersfield, with the prospects of a 23-point win in the last meeting, and a game likely tomorrow, is not going to empty the tank in this one, leaving room for Chicago State to sneak in under the number once again. Make the play on Chicago State.

Pro Picks
Cal State Bakersfield vs. Chicago State
Chicago State finished the season with just one more win than Cal State Bakersfield, but that doesn't begin to tell the whole story. Chicago State took on the likes of Indiana, Bradley, Illinois State, Southern Illinois, DePaul, Cincinnati, Creighton, and Green Bay. Those are eight teams and games way over their level. They finished a competitive 3-3 in their last six games, and held the advantage over Bakersfield by beating them both at home and on the road during the regular season. The Roadrunners took on some strong teams early, but this team appeared to wilt down the stretch, finishing with four straight losses with one to Chicago State. The Roadrunners are leaking oil right now, and the Cougars have shown growth, a tougher schedule early on, and proof home and away that they can handle the Roadrunners. While Tournament games tend to play out closer, the Cougars have shown the ability to get it done. Play Chicago State straight-up.
