4*
(NCAAB) South Dakota State vs. Akron,
Point Spread: -3.50 | -106.00 Akron (Home)
Result: Loss
South Dakota St won 30 games LY and returns their #4 thru #9 scores but if you lose your top 3 that combined for 50% of you scoring and are playing on the road against a team that plays very good defense, I don’t mind fading you. Akron returns 3 starters including a pair of All-Mac players, and are a solid 3 point shooting transfer from Northern Illinois. The Zips have a veteran bench which makes me believe they will play solid D out of the gate.
