Wright State Raiders vs. Milwaukee Panthers Prediction

I’m on Wright State here. I just think that Wright State has been the best team in the Horizon League this season and I just don’t think that Milwaukee has enough depth to hang with the Raiders in this game, even at home. Wright State is no joke and is back to being a legit threat in the Horizon League and I think they get it done here. Give me Wright State.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Wright State -2.5
