Cleveland State vs Wright State Prediction 

Cleveland State was able to win their first game in the Horizon Tournament against IU Indy, but they were just 6-14 in conference play this year. The Vikings are shooting 46% from the field and they have allowed 81+ points in five straight games. Wright State has won four of their last five games and they are 15-5 in the Horizon League. The Raiders are shooting 49% from the field and they have scored 85+ points in three of their last five. We should see plenty of scoring in this game, but I like Wright State to pull away in the second half for the cover.
