Murray State vs. Southern Illinois

Murray State is off to a strong start, especially on defense. They have gone three straight UNDER the total after holding Austin Peay to 57 points and 39.6% shooting while forcing 17 turnovers. Southern Illinois has won its first two games playing strong defense, too, but the offense gets a stiff test as 87% of SIU's scoring is from freshmen and sophomores. The kids haven't faced a defense like this one. Southern Illinois is 88-58 UNDER the total after two or more straight wins, plus 97-71 UNDER against teams that shoot 45% from the field or better. Play the UNDER.
