The set-up: Central Arkansas is 4-5 and it's lost five straight on the road. New Mexico is just 4-4 and it'll be just as hungry for a victory here. Two hungry teams collide and in my opinion, this one sets up as more of a defensive affair than a high-scoring shootout. Central Arkansas was most recently destroyed 68-55 by Missouri. Eddy Kayouloud was Central Arkansas' high scorer with 19 points on 7-for-13 shooting. New Mexico comes in off an 87-84 win over the lowly CSUN Matadors.

The pick: The Lobos have been decent offensively, but I think they'll have their hands full today with a Bears team desperate to reverse its fortunes on the road. Take it for what you will as well, but Central Arkansas has seen the total go "under" the number in seven of its last nine following a four games or more road losing streak. This number is high, play the "under."

10* play
