Missouri State usually puts a pretty competitive team on the floor every year. The program took a hit this year with a coaching change, transfers, and injuries, and it has been a long season. The Bears finished at just 11-19. Outside of an overtime game vs. Bradley the Bears have scored 60 points or less in 14 of their last 16 games, and have failed to top 55 in half of them. Southern Illinois has not fared any better at 11-20 on the season. The Salukis' offense has not generated more than 65 points in any of their lasst nine games. The tempo here is going to be very slow, and the points hard to come by, so I can see this game playing in the 50s at best. Take the UNDER.
