We like this one in that Middle Tennessee will come into this game 8-2 Against The Spread versus teams with winning records.

The Blue Raiders proved to be a giant killer at this year’s tournament, not just knocking out a top seed but beating a Michigan State team that had the second shortest odds of winning this year’s NCAA Championship. 

''There was no doubt in that particular game, the best team won,'' said Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim, who caught the end of it after his own first-round game. ''From beginning to end, they played the best.''

Middle Tennessee has covered the spread in seven of their last ten games overall while Syracuse has done so in six. 

The Blue Raiders is 6-0 ATS in their last 6 non-conference games while the Orange is 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600.  Syracuse has not performed well Against The Spread versus Conference USA teams as they have gone 0-4 ATS.
