(NCAAB) Detroit vs. Northern Kentucky, 02/16/2016 2:00 PM, Score: 74 - 68
Point Spread: 2.00 | -109.00 Northern Kentucky (Home)
Result: Loss
Tonight is Northern Kentucky's Senior Night as their last 3 games of the regular season are on the road. While Senior Night in an elite program means far less (underclassman drafted early) for the Norsemen its about 5 players who helped bring this program from the Atlantic Sun Conference into the Horizon this season and includes a pair of multi-year starter who are the teams top two scorers. With NKU as a home dog we'll discount their poor overall ATS record and point that they are 3-4 SU & 4-3 ATS their last 7 games as an underdog and while not earth shattering it's far better then Detroit road record of 2-8 SU with both wins coming against teams below NKU in the standing that have a combined 7-19 conference record (NKU 5-9). I expect a Big crowd, a lot of energy after the Norseman just failed to sweep their first Horizon foe on Saturday in a 2-point loss they can grab that tonight after beating Detroit 91-83 back on January 29th.
