Western Illinois is getting a ton of points against South Dakota State and the Leathernecks have some extra motivation after being annihilated by the Jackrabbits in December while shooting only 29.3 percent. We can expect Western Illinois to shoot better than that today as it averages a .429 field goal percentage overall and .376 from three-point distance. Kobe Webster leads the Leathernecks with 16.7 points per game and Brandon Gilbeck, last season's Summit League Defensive Player of the Year, pulls down 8.3 rebounds per contest. If Western Illinois can somewhat contain high-scoring Mike Daum then it's capable of staying within the big number. Take the points with Western Illinois.
