Illinois State at Drake

The Drake Bulldogs look to be the class of the Missouri Valley this season, and is the team to beat. Drake has been a strong mid-major team for the last three years. This should be an interesting game as Illinois St. is 10-7 on the season, but play better than the record. Drake is a deadly shooting team at 49% and knock down 40% of their 3's and at the line this team connects on 78%. The Redbirds defend well, and if this team can limit their turnovers, and get hot from beyond the arc this is going to be much closer than the line. Make the play on Illinois St.
