Even though CMU dropped two of its last three games heading into the tournament, the Chippewas still posted the fifth-best conference record in the MAC. Central Michigan has also won two of its last three games against Western Michigan, and the staff from Spooky Express believes that trend will continue with the Chippewas winning and covering a 9-point spread.
