Evansville at IUPUI

The Evansville Purple Aces play in a far superior league in the MVC, which finds a lot of good teams every year. Indiana-Purdue is not going to be a good shooting team, connecting on just 40% in their opener, which included a woeful 18.8% from deep. Mitch Patton scored 26, but the problem is that the supporting cast is very limited. That will allow Evansville to double up on him and force someone else to beat them, and that player has yet to emerge for IUPUI. D.J. Balentine will be in a scoring role this season, answered the challenge with 29 in the opener for Evansville. The Jaguars' home court success is just a rumor, as they are a pathetic 3-15 ATS in their last 18 on home hardwood. Play Evansville in this one.
