Missouri State is among the elite in the Missouri Valley Conference and probably the best offensive team in the conference. This is a very home-court dominated league but Illinois State has not been able to establish that against the top teams in the league. Last year Illinois State played Creighton tough, but lost to the other top teams by 11, 12, 13, 15 and nine points. One of those home losses was to Missouri State by 11-points. Missouri State has already displayed the ability to win in tougher MVC gyms than this one with a convincing win over Bradley. We don't see Illinois State staying in this one.
