Eastern Kentucky won an overtime game yesterday over Cleveland State, so they will lean on defense against the CBI's No. 1 seed Indiana State. Eastern Kentucky was third in the Atlantic Sun defensively in field goal shooting allowed (42.1%) and second in 3-point defense (33.3% shooting allowed). Eastern Kentucky's offense was 12th in the 14-team conference in shooting (43.5%) and from long range (33.7%). Eastern Kentucky is on a 36-22 run UNDER the total, including 15-6 UNDER in non-conference action. Indiana State shut down South Carolina Upstate, 67-62, allowing 37.7% shooting and just 5-of-24 from long range (20.8%). They were fifth in the 12-team Missouri Valley Conference in points surrendered, fourth in field goal shooting allowed (42.4%), and second at defending beyond the arc (.317). And post-season tournament games where the total is between 150 and 159.5 points are 106-54 UNDER the total. Take Eastern Kentucky/Indiana State UNDER the total.
