Illinois State has been perfect this season, going 11-0 thus far. They now face another excellent team in Missouri State who is 7-4 including 6-2 at home. These teams take different approaches. The Redbirds are doing it with offense as they are averaging 76.8 per game overall and 81.8 per game on the road! The Bears have done it with defense. I like Illinois State's chance at scoring here though as they are the better team. If that happens and Missouri State gets behind, they are not going to be afraid to try to catch up by launching three-pointers. They take 21 per game and the Redbirds are 9-2 OVER since last season vs. teams that take 21+ per game. I like this game to gove this low posted total as Illinois State should force an up-tempo high scoring affair.
