Pick

I’m leaning towards Northern Kentucky here. Wright State has been the better team as of late, but right now, Northern Kentucky needs this win a lot more to keep pace in the race at the top of the Horizon League standings and Northern Kentucky’s simply had the number of Wright State, covering in each of the last six head-to-head meetings. If NKU doesn’t win this game, it’s coming down to the last shot I think. Give me the Norse and the points here.
