The Ball State Cardinals have lost two of their last three and took a 73-58 beating at Western Michigan their last time out. They're however 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games following a straight up loss and look good to bounce back with a big performance here against Central Michigan.

The Chippewas have lost three straight and have allowed close to 86 ppg during the skid. They are 1-8 ATS in their last nine games following a straight up loss and 2-10 ATS in their last 12 vs. Mid-American teams while the Cardinals are 8-3-1 ATS in their last 12 vs. Mid-American sides.

Ball State is holding opponents to a solid 66.0 ppg at home, it won two meetings with Western Michigan by an average of 12 points last year and is 13-3-2 ATS in the last 18 meetings as a home team.

My selection is a 10* play on Ball State Cardinals.
