Illinois State at Drake

We have been riding the Drake money train all season, but it's finally time to get off. Josh Young, their best player went down with an ankle injury vs Indiana State, and he may or may not play here, but hasn't played since. His 16.3 ppg and 80 makes from three will be hard to replace. The Redbirds are firing on all cylinders right now, and this game may go a long way in determining the MVC Champ. As good as Drake has been, they have suffered at home vs the better teams, posting a 3-7-1 ATS mark vs teams with a road winning percentage of .600+. The Redbirds have thrived against competent home teams having amassed a 7-0 ATS mark vs teams with a winning home record.
