Pace factors here. Both teams play extremely slow. They also aren't very good offensively either. Eastern Illinois averages 58.1 points. The Panthers are not only one of the worst shooting teams from the field, but they also are terrible from the free throw line where they rank 327th making 64.5 percent.

Butler ranks 22nd defensively giving up 58 points a game. The Bulldogs, though, rank 300th in scoring at 64.8 points per game. Eastern Illinois guards well against the 3-pointer so Butler is going to have to work the clock in order to get good shots.
