They are a crazy 18-1 this season and while I know some were easy non conference games, it's still not that easy especially given how much the SEC has improved this year. Miss St is 7-2 SU their last 9 games. Their 2 losses being on the road and by a combined 5 points.

Yes, they have injuries they are dealing with, but I really like what I saw last game only having 6 players @ West Virginia who is playing well and they covered the number. Oklahoma St laid it all on the line last game vs Texas losing by 1. Big look ahead as well with Kansas on deck

Penn St is playing for their NCAA tournament berth. Getting 10 conference wins in the magical number. I also think big let down spot for Michigan who is coming off beating Ohio St which I had Sunday.

I like here to get the job done. Illinois state sits at third in the conference while Valpo sits dead last. Now you ask yourself why is Valpo favored by 5. Well Illnois St will be without their 2nd and 3rd leading scorer today which is a huge loss. Their 2nd leading scorer for today will be a guy who averages 6 ppg. Valpo is playing better than their record indicates as well as they have lost 4 of their last 5 but their last two both on the road were by 6 and 4. Valpo gets it done
