10* MISSOURI VALLEY CONF GAME OF YEAR - BIG!
(NCAAB) Indiana State vs. Illinois State,
Point Spread: 1.50 | -107.00 Indiana State (Away)
Result: Loss
This is a 10* MVW CONF TOURNEY GOY on Indiana State.

The winner of this game will get a matchup against the top-seeded Northern Iowa Panthers in the first round of the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament.

These teams are evenly matched. Indiana State averages 71 PPG, while Illinois State averages 75.

These teams split the season series, with each winning on its own floor.

Indiana State was a favorite in the second game, but it came out flat in the 86-66 setback. Many believe though it was a tactic done on purpose to help in the conference tournament.

The Redbirds may score more than their opponent on average, but they're also much worse on the defensive end.

I think the Sycamores were laying down in their last game. Expect INDIANA STATE's superior defense to be the difference as this one comes down the stretch.

Good luck, NP
