UMKC and North Dakota have struggled this season, as each looks to try to finish on a higher note. North Dakota is 9-16 on the season and 3-7 in conference play, while UMKC enters play at home with a 10-15 mark and just 2-8 in conference play. Despite similar records, UMKC has a +5ppg scoring margin on the season, while North Dakota enters at -2ppg. North Dakota has serious issues on the defensive side of the ball, allowing 80ppg, 48% shooting, and 37% from deep. The Fighting Hawks have been even worse in conference play, allowing opponents to shoot 51.5%. I just don't see them staying in this game on the road. Make the play on UMKC.
