*3 Star NCAA TGIF Bookie CRUSHER* Ball State and Morehead State are two teams who like to rely heavily on their defense. Both teams like to slow the game down and play in the halfcourt. Ball State plays very good halfcourt defense, and I don't think Morehead State will see many easy looks in this one. Morehead State is inefficent offensively, but I do think they will have better defensive intensity in front of their home crowd. Look for this game to be a slow paced game where the lead goes back and forth. These teams played to a 50-48 final last year. I don't expect it to be that low this time, but I do like the under. The under is 7-0 in Morehead State's last 7 Friday games. The under is 4-0-1 in the Cardinals last 5 games. Take the under here.
