    There's something weird about this Ark St/Ind St game
    I can't figure this game out. The way I look at it, and it looks like the rest of you are looking at it, Ark St is the clear play - can't quite understand why they are getting +3 or +4. I am trying to find some justification somewhere to lay huge on Ark St, but my resources are saying exactly the opposite.

    Dunkel has Indiana State favored by 8.

    Accuscore has Indiana State winning by 7.



    Both of these would indicate that Indiana St is the clear play here. Can anyone figure this one out???

      Mogwai,
      I agree. I thought that Ark St. would be a small favorite here. I will research for injuries, suspensions, and arrests when I get a chance.
      For what it's worth, I have very little regard for accuscore.

        I like Ark State, before lines came out capped them to win so dont understand the logic. Might be another James Madison - favored by only 1 vs 0-4 team and they James Madison wins by 20

          I think you have to realize that Arkansas State is not a great team fellas. Most picked them to finish near the bottom in the division in the Sun Belt. Indiana State is without a couple returnees from last year, but they may have hit some sort of stride in losing to DePaul. They were ridiculous in the 2nd half there, losing by 5 after trailing by 20 at the half. I don't like either side here, but this may be a bit of a trap line - which is weird to say in a game involving these schools.

              MVC teams always get respect at home, so I wouldn't read too much into weird line. I am on Ark State myself.
