4*
(NCAAB) Kent State vs. Toledo,
Point Spread: 5.50 | -110.00 Kent State (Away)
Result: Win
I like the matchup here for Kent State and looking back I'm surprised Toledo was able to blow them out twice.

These two teams played in the season finale with Toledo winning big and it's been profitable in conference tournaments so far to go the other way (which would be Kent State here)


Kent State is physical and will deny the rim forcing Toledo into a number of threes. Normally that's fine for Toledo, the Rockets are 15th nationally in three point shooting but here they will have to do it on a neutral floor they haven't played on in an 11AM local tip.

I also think there's a lot more pressure on Toledo here while Kent State is sort of just playing with house money at this point. I think at worst this is an exciting game where Kent State covers. If Jalen Sullinger can have a game I could see Kent State winning here.
