Wright State vs Butler Prediction 

Butler comes into this matchup with a 5-1 record to start the season and they will be at home for this contest. The Bulldogs are shooting 49% from the field and they have scored at least 79 points in five straight games. Wright State has won three of their last four, but they have played a pretty soft schedule so far. The Raiders are shooting 50% from the field, but I think they are going to have major issues with rebounding here. I think Butler has looked very solid to start the season and I like them to cover here.

David Racey's Pick: Butler -14.5
