Result: Win
ASA top play on 10* UNDER 147.5 Central Michigan @ Eastern Michigan, 7 PM ET - There is some tremendous value in the number here as these two MAC foes met twice last season and the oddsmakers posted Totals of 138.5 on each game. When EMU was the home team, they dictated tempo and the two teams combined for 130 total points. The game at CMU was a little higher scoring with a Total of 143 but that still gets the cash here. The style of play for these teams couldn’t be any different as Central wants to get up and down while Eastern prefers a much slower tempo. In conference games a year ago, Eastern was the slowest team in the MAC and also the worst offensively with a .930 points per possession average in league play. EMU made up for it though with the second-best defensive efficiency number in the MAC. Conversely, Central was the second fastest team in the league but just 8th in OEFF. CMU wasn’t great defensively though ranking 8th in DEFF allowing 1.038PPP. This season Central Michigan has faced another MAC foe in Western Michigan who is very similar to Eastern and those two teams combined for 137 Total points. Our model is projecting 141 total points here which has us on the UNDER.
