Jan 9 | Alex B. Smith | 5% | [CBB] (635) Marshall at (636) Middle Tennessee St Time: 7:30 PM EST | Marshall -4.5 (-110) |
Analysis:The Thundering Herd of Marshall takes on Middle Tennessee State tonight on the road. The Herd are a solid entry in C-USA play coming off a tough 3 point loss against North Texas, but has done well ATS, covering 9 of their last 14 games. Guard Andrew Taylor has been a big boost since becoming eligible right as conference play begins. Meanwhile, MTSU has been absolute moneyburners, failing to cover in 9 of their last 11 games, losing 6 in a row straight up and scoring less than 70 points in 7 consecutive games. They don't shoot well and they don't protect the ball well either, both are issues that Marshall will be able to exploit in this game. Laying a very cheap price, Lay it with the Herd as a Best Bet! Line Parameters: 5% at -6 or better; 4% if betwix -6.5 & -7.5; 3% if at -8 or worse. |
