We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.

This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant ATS statistics:

As note that Ball State is 5-2 ATS in its last seven as a road dog of three points or less or pick, while Indiana State is just 1-3 ATS in its last four as a home fav of three points or less or pick.

The bottom line: These teams are clearly very evenly matched, but the numbers point to BALL STATE as the correct call today.
