T.M. Selection: Bradley

The Braves offer fantastic line value here at home for this one in NIT action Tuesday. Bradley off the road win at George Mason and now is back home where they have had a huge season and have won 4 straight and 14 of 17. Also, 8 of last 9 Braves home wins by 4 or more points! Also, Chattanooga was just 2-4 in non-conference road games this season prior to that miracle 3-OT win at Middle Tennessee State to open up the NIT tournament action. Also, the Southern Conference is not as strong as the Missouri Valley Conference and the Mocs will have their hands full on the road here. Also, look at bench play to be a factor here as Chattanooga got only 15 of 87 points from their bench in their win over Dayton while the Braves Corey Thomas is feeling it right now and helped lead the way for the Braves bench to produce 28 of 75 points in their win AT George Mason and they roll again here at home!

T.M. Prediction: 83-70 Bradley
