Miami (OH) at Western Michigan 2/16/19 College Basketball Pick
The Broncos are coming into the game here with only a single win in the MAC. The Redhawks on the year have ended up getting 5 wins on the season. With that being the case this will be a decent battle in the MAC, but it may end up being slanted quite a bit towards the Redhawks in this game even with the problems the Miami team has had when playing on the road because of just how bad the Broncos have been on the season.

Redhawks at Broncos Line: Miami (OH) Redhawks -5.5 O/U 141
My Free College Basketball Pick: Miami (OH) Redhawks -5.5
The Broncos are struggling a ton this season and definitely are not going to have a good game here. Yes, the Broncos are at home and that usually makes it easier for the team to pick up a win. However, in this game here the Broncos are going to face a foe that has been playing great lately and was able to beat their latest opponent by double figures, which the Broncos lost by double figures. I look for the Broncos to struggle again in this game here as the Miami Redhawks win and cover the spread 70-60.
