This is a 10* MID-MAJOR DESTRUCTION on Southern Illinois.
For a number of different reasons I expect the home side to find a way to get the job done at the end of the night and to pull away down the stretch for the comfortable ATS cover. The Salukis will be the "hungrier" team today as they look to snap a five-game losing streak. Here's the perfect motivational opponent to face, Drake has won six-straight at SIU Arena, but is finally ripe for the picking this season as the Bulldogs are just 1-14 away from home this year. This is a big game for the Salukis as well as a win, combined with a Bradley loss will ensure the team the No. 9 seed. Conversely, Drake is locked in at the No. 7 seed whether it wins or loses. This is a great situational play in my opinion, but becomes even stronger when taking into account the fact that the Bulldogs are a poor 8-11 ATS this year when playing the role of underdog, just 3-7 ATS in true road games and only 1-2 ATS after allowing 80 points or more, while the Salukis are 15-11 ATS in their last 26 when revenging a road loss vs. an opponent. In my opinion, the situation, the numbers and the trends do all indeed point to SOUTHERN ILLINOIS as the sharp wager in this contest.
