Illinois State Redbirds vs Bradley Braves. The NCAAB pick for this game is the Bradley Braves. I get the case for Illinois State and the points in this game, given the Redbirds are involved in a few tight road defeats. The difficulty is that those road defeats came against teams in the bottom half of the MVC, such as Indiana State and Evansville.

Bradley is in the top five, and every win is critical for MVC tournament positioning, but the Redbirds are crushed on the road against tougher opposition. With Bradley laying the points, I’ll take my shot. The Bradley Braves will win to a predicted score of 76-65.
