1/28/2008 12:00:00 AM | Men's Basketball

Central Michigan (8-10, 3-3 Mid-American) faces one of the best homecourt advantages in the Mid-American Conference on Tuesday night when the Chippewas travel to Ohio (13-6, 4-2 Mid-American) to meet the Bobcats. Tipoff in the Convocation Center is set for 7 p.m., and the game will be televised on ESPN's Full Court subscription package and on ESPN360.com.

Ohio is 7-0 at home this season, one of three MAC teams with an unblemished record in their own gym. MAC-leading Kent State (12-0) and Akron (10-0) are the others.

CMU is coming off a dramatic 65-64 win over then MAC co-leader Akron on Saturday. Nate Minnoy led the Chippewas with 21 points and six rebounds.

The Chippewas have dropped five straight in the series with OU. CMU's last victory came in 2003 when J.R. Wallace banked in a halfcourt shot to win 87-84.
