Sunday's Games

[PocketAces]

Here's a look at Sunday's games and trends. Opening lines are given. Home team in CAPS.

SOUTHERN ILLINOIS (-6) vs. Illinois State

The Redbirds are only 3-10 ATS so far this year and only 1-3 ATS as a dog. The Salukis are only 2-4 ATS at home and 1-3 as a favorite. Not much to work with here. Slight lean to Southern Illinois.
PREDICTION: Southern Illinois 66-59.


Creighton (-3) @ EVANSVILLE

Creighton is 4-1 ATS now in true road games. The Aces are only 1-2 ATS at home and are 3-5 ATS as a dog. Even after a tough OT win on Friday a slight lean to Creighton. PREDICTION: Creighton 70-65.


NORTHERN IOWA (-12.5) vs. Bradley

Bradley is only 3-10 ATS so far this year and only 2-5 ATS as a dog. Northern is only 3-4 ATS as a favorite but is 3-1 ATS at home. PREDICTION: Northern Iowa 67-52


DRAKE (-2.5) vs Indiana State

The Sycamores are on a nice ATS run, but are only 3-4 this year as a dog and only 2-4 ATS in true road games. Drake is 4-2 ATS at home and 3-1 as a favorite. PREDICTION: Drake 76-70


WICHITA STATE (-3.5) vs. Missouri State

Wichita has 4 straight ATS wins. They are 2-1 at home and an impressive 6-2 ATS as a favorite. The Bears though are 2-1 as a dog and 3-2 ATS in true road games. Tough call but that Wichita run as a favorite looks good. PREDICTION: Wichita State 79-72.

....The problem here is the trends give at least slight leans to all the favorites. Wichita State has 4 straight covers for me and I must ride them till they buck me. I'll take Drake and Wichita State.
