Tough to win at the Convo so going light here but the individual match ups favor the Zips in this one. They are the better team and it's not close. They just need to stay composed and not let the environment beat them. Easy to say, not so easy to do.
As far as the CMU pick goes.. The cat is out of the bag now and just about everybody knows that Kent's point guard broke his foot in the Ohio game. Kent St. liked to run 9 guys so now they are down two of their primary guards. the Flashes are going to have to get deep into their bench and the drop off in quality should become quickly apparent.
CMU has begun to look like the pre season MAC favorites that they were projected to be. BTW, their strength is in their guards Fowler and Rayson.
