Eastern Michigan may be 0-1 in the MAC, but they've had a great season already with 11 wins. This team is #7 in the nation in rebounds behind 6-7 Karrington Ward (14 points per game, 7 rebounds per game) and 6-11 junior Mike Samuels (5 rpg) and his 285-pound frame. The Eagles are 6-2-1 ATS following a loss. Miami of Ohio is struggling, losing 8 of the last 11, along with a 1-10 spread run. Eastern Michigan has won two of the last three times these teams have met. Eastern Michigan defeated Miami at the Convocation Center on Jan. 19, 2013, by a tally of 65-58, before knocking off the Redhawks in the second round of the 2013 Mid-American Conference Men's Basketball Tournament back on March 11, 2013, 58-47. The value here is for the better team to win the game, so take Eastern Michigan on the moneyline.
