RMU is also 0-6 on the road this season while BGSU is 3-1 at home and they have been playing well recently winning 3 of their last 4 games. RMU has been playing so bad this season that they cannot be trusted until they start to win some games or even just cover the spread as they are 1-7 ATS this season.

"Our guys came out and did a nice job of having really good activity as well as sharing the basketball. That led to some simple plays and some simple shots. We were mature enough to try and not overcomplicate things. Everybody contributed and made plays, and it was nice to be able to win the game." - Andrew Toole after his team’s first and only win of the season.

 

 

“You watch the basketball and how he plays, and you saw that he can help us. With the things that he does, we can utilize him, and he can help us win a championship. And that’s what I saw with his shot blocking, the way he runs the floor, the way he can defend multiple positions, the way he rebounded.” - Michael Huger on the performance of Reece this season.
