Result: Loss

*3 Star NCAA BB Play of the Day* Minnesota lost star player Trevor Mbakwe for the season a few weeks ago. The team isn't even close to the same without him. Mbwake was the team's best scorer and rebounder. Tubby Smith's team is playing solid defense now, but they are struggling to find an offensive rhythm. Central Michigan plays at a slower than normal place, and they are not an efficient offensive team. Central Michigan allows opponents to shoot only 39% on two-point attempts this year, and Minnesota shoots a lot of two point shots. The pace here should be slow, and without any big offensive weapons, I like the chances for the under. The under is 21-7 in Central Michigan's last 28 road games. The under is 3-0-1 in Minnesota's 4 games since Mbakwe was injured. Take the under.
