The offense is led by Tremell Murphy with 15 points and he grabs 6.3 rebounds a game. Roman Penn adds 12 points and dishes out 3.7 assists. Tucker Devries chips in 10.7 points.

Belmont is just 2-7-1 ATS in their last 10 games overall and an abysmal 0-6-1 ATS in their last 7 games against a team with a winning record. Both teams are loaded with experience and both teams like to get up and down the floor in a hurry. Belmont has a lot of upperclassmen returning. Drake also gets a couple of their best players back who were injured at the end of last season. Drake has been scorching the nets from deep and I look for that to continue in this one.

Play on Drake. This is a 7* play.
