Wisconsin Green Bay -1: This is by far and away the best team in the Horizon, it is their conference to lose, on a mission after losing on a desperation 3 in the Horizon Tourney last year to Valpo. I watched them in Alaska earlier this year, got beat by a good Harvard team but UWGB has it all, size and a great guard named Keifer Sykes who is a stud. Wright State is upper tier in the Horizon League but UW-Green Bay just is too much for them.
Canisius +7: Canisius played fast tempo last year but has slowed it down, Iona still playing fast. But Canisius if it wants to can play fast and loose like Iona wants to. I expect this to be a high scoring back and forth affair, and neither team has an edge over the other, which is why you have to take the 7 points.
Southern Illinois +4: Both SIU and Bradley are trash... I think SIU is the slightly better team with the better coach. Geno Ford was average at Kent State, at least Barry Hinson won at Missouri State. SIU is better at scoring but has a crappy defense, Bradley better at defending but has a crappy offense. SIU just has more playmakers which is why I will take them at +4
