Murray State -4.5
Illinois State is 2-0 in true road games this season ? at the crap-houses of DePaul and UAB. Murray State is one of the toughest home courts in the U.S. of A. Our favorite added-board boys got a wake-up call there when they lost the 2014-15 opener to Houston, but they?ve reeled off four straight wins since and are laying single-digits against a team with no kind of NCAA Tournament pedigree, no Missouri Valley Conference recent championships or anything like that. Cameron Payne, the best underclassman point guard nobody has heard about, is the Ohio Valley Player of the Week coming off a 32-point effort. Jarvis Williams and T.J. Sapp are both capable of 20-point outings. The Racers are nailing 3-pointers at better than 40%, and stealing it 9 times per game. While fourth-leading scorer Bobby Hunter might return after missing the last game for Illinois State, second-leading scorer DeVaughn Akoon-Purcell is out 4-6 weeks and will miss his second straight game tonight
