This is a high total and a pair of teams ranked #224 and #226 in shooting from the field. This game is at a neutral-court in Minneapolis for the U.S. Bank Stadium College Basketball Classic. Drake has only one returning starter and away from home the Bulldogs are averaging just 68.5 points per game. Drake is 28-10 UNDER the total at neutral-sites, plus 22-10 UNDER when following a straight-up win. They face a North Dakota State squad that is 24-11 UNDER the total at neutral-sites, so look for more defense than offense. Play the UNDER.
