The Bethune-Cookman Wildcats and the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders meet in college basketball action from the Murphy Center on Friday night.

The Bethune-Cookman Wildcats come into this game looking to bounce back from a 75-54 loss at the hands of USF in their last game. Joe French led the Wildcats with 14 points on 5 of 11 shooting with 4 threes while Dylan Robertson, Marcus Garrett and Collins Joseph each had 10 points to cap off the group of double-digit scorers for the Wildcats in the losing effort with Joseph also chipping in a team-high 6 assists. Kevin Davis also added a team-high 11 rebounds in the loss for the Wildcats. As a team, Bethune-Cookman shot 37.3% from the field, 21.7% from 3-point range and 83.3% from the foul line in the defeat.

The Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders will try to build on a 98-59 win over Brescia University in their last game. Josh Jefferson led the Blue Raiders with 16 points on 7 of 12 shooting with 4 steals while Isaiah Turner had 13 points on 6 of 10 shooting. Eli Lawrence added 12 points on 5 of 7 shooting with a pair of steals and Christian Fussell had 10 points with 5 boards to finish off the group of double-digit scorers for Middle Tennessee in the victory. Camryn Weston and Teafale Lenard each had 6 points with Weston dishing out a team-high 5 assists while Lenard grabbed a team-high 7 rebounds. As a team, Middle Tennessee shot 57.4% from the field, 32.1% from three and 78.6% from the foul line in the win.

Bethune-Cookman is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 road games and 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games as an underdog while the under is 11-0 in their last 11 games overall. Middle Tennessee is 0-7 ATS in their last 7 games as a favorite and 9-19-1 ATS in their last 29 games overall while the over is 4-1 in their last 5 games following a win.

I’m not trying to back either of these teams as I have no idea what we will get from BC and Middle Tennessee has been brutal as a favorite. I will side with the under though, as Middle Tennessee isn’t blowing anyone away offensively and the under’s hit in 11 straight for the Wildcats.
