Middle Tennessee State may see their football team in a Bowl game, but their basketball team won't be playing in the post-season. The Blue Raiders have a losing record against mostly soft competition and the three games they have played vs. mid to high level conferences have seen three losses and three pointspread losses. Evansville is 3-1 at home, where they can compete with anyone, and have beaten Butler on the road. They lost to Middle Tennessee earlier in the season and I suspect they will be primed at home for payback. The Purple Aces are cashing in big off a momentum building 20+ point win, where they have now gone 6-0-1 ATS in their next game. I like Evansville in this one.
