Eastern Illinois at Eastern Kentucky

Eastern Illinois is winless on the road and have lost eight straight, scoring 59.2 ppg on 41.8% from the field (39.6% on the road and 37.3% over their last five games). Their lone win came in an unlined game vs. Harris Stowe. Eastern Kentucky is no world-beating team, struggling this year on offense too. But they do play very good defense and should make it very difficult for the Panthers. E. Illinois is just 1-11 the last two seasons vs. opponents that average 64 or fwere points per game so E. Kentucky's offensive problems aer not a major concern here. E. Kentucky is 17-6 vs. conference opponents the past two seasons and we like them to get the win here.
