The Southern Illinois Salukis reigned supreme in the MVC for several years, but the team has fallen from there and has been struggling to find their way back. They have suffered five straight conference losses, and have not covered any of them. Wichita State is 20-4 and unless this team completely tanks the rest of their schedule, they are an NCAA Tournament team. They will not likely bring their "A" game here as looming on deck are the emerging Northern Iowa Panthers. The Salukis have sure made life miserable for the Shockers as they are 14-3 ATS in the last 17 meetings. I expect Wichita State to conserve energy here for the next one, so I like Southern Illinois to stay inside an inflated number.
