The Oral Roberts Golden Eagles may be 27-5 on the season, but with a strength of schedule at 188 and an RPI of 38, they sit firmly on the NCAA Tournament bubble. A loss here would mean a lower RPI and diminished hopes of gaining an at large berth to the dance. That should mean this team brings full attention to detail here vs. a Western Illinois team that likes to lock it up on the defensive end while playing the shot clock down to the end on offense. The Leathernecks did exactly that to get here off a game that saw just 111 combined points scored, holding an opponent to the 50s or less for the 14th time this season. Western Illinois is now 37-18-1 to the UNDER in their last 56 games overall and I expect nothing less here in this one. UNDER gets the call.
