record 12-15
UT-Chatt +5
I'm not sure why Illinois St. is favored in this one. ISU has allowed opponents to shoot 51% from the field and has been outrebounded in all 3 game this season while UTC has a +10 rebound margin per game. ISU doesn't have much size and relies on 3 small guards for most of their offense. UTC has pretty good size in the backcourt with only 1 guard under 6-4 so they could ISU's guards some trouble. UTC won 70-59 at ISU last year and I could see a similar result this season.

FSU +3
FSU has some good players returning in Joiner and Richardson and some transfers that are making a contribution. Still don't think Iowa is a very good team. More depth and home court advantage should get FSU the win in this one.

Brown +5
Ohio is not a very good road team and not a good defensive team. Brown was tough at home last year and has 4 of their top 5 scorers back from last year. They can shoot the 3 and Ohio didn't defend it very well in their 1st game at Providence. If Brown can find a way to slow down Hunter they could win this game.

Cal Poly +11
Think this is too many for OSU to be laying to just about anyone. CP improved last season and OSU has lost to Idaho and beaten Seattle. I'm not even sure if Seattle is a Div. II team. I wouldn't be surprised to see CP win this game outright.
