Murray State at Eastern Illinois

The Murray State Racers are off to a perfect 13-0 start to their season. They have been lights-out with their shooting, connecting on 48.5% of their shots as well as 43.5% from 3-point-range. Despite the lights-out shooting, the assist/turnover ratio is just 1/1. That is an indication that on nights where the above-average shooting isn’t there they will struggle. The board work has been average and the defense ranks No. 171 in FG percentage allowed. They are also now a target for opponents at 13-0 so they will get their opponents “A” game every game. Eastern Illinois can play and has a very positive assist/turnover ratio and a few good scorers, and should more than hold their own on the glass. We have upset potential here, so take the points and play on Eastern Illinois.
