# 514 troy +4.5 this number is a bit inflated imo with western kentucky coming in on an 8 game winning streak...however,this underdog has won 6 in a row themselves and are very live in this spot for the straight up win let alone +4.5...troy is 9-1 in the last 10 ballgames and the lone defeat was at wku by 18 a month ago in what was easily their most non competitive effort of the 18 game conference schedule...they fell behind early in that game and were run out wire to wire...now they get another shot at this team with much more at stake and in great current form...western kentucky was life and death last night vs arkansas st as an 8.5 point favorite and probably should have lost the game...wku was down 6 with just 2:30 left before a 3 pt barrage put them up 1 with 6 seconds left and then to end the game ark st blows a lay up...pretty emotional finish for a team now set for third game in 3 nights...wku last night shoots 49% from the field,48% from 3 pt and wins the game by 1!!...hilltoppers were outrebounded by 16 vs a team they were nearly a dd fave against...on the flip side troy last night does not shoot as well(35 % fg and 32% 3 pt)and still goes up 17 at half and rolls to a comfortable 12 point win collecting 41 rebounds on the night...i'm on the number 1 seeded troy trojans who are the fresher team, playing with a lot of confidence,have got a chip on their shoulder from an embarassing loss to this opponent,and is the most complete and capable team offensively in the sun belt...very generous price in this game...# 514 TROY +4.5 is a play...good luck fellas
