Maybe a return home to the Wolstein Center will help the cause of Cleveland State, which has found no traction in recent Horizon League road trips. Perhaps not, as recent double-digit Horizon home losses to Detroit and Milwaukee suggests the Vikings are simply fighting with one hand tied behind their backs. As a result of often playing with five-out and looking to push the pace, CSU, similar to many teams, simply doesn't play enough defense; the Vikings rank a poor 347th nationally in scoring D at 84.9 ppg. Not good! This should create opportunities for Doug Gottlieb's surging Fighting Phoenix, who have won four straight, with transfer G Justin Allen scoring 21 or more in three of the past four games. Play Green Bay.
