5* ISU +2 (-120) :bigun:
Love this one. Redbirds coming off two tough loses (by 3 at Wichita St as 14 pt dogs and by 9 just two days ago home vs Creighton) while Drake coming off two good wins vs lesser opponents (by 8 as 10 pt favs vs Braves and a su win as 5 pt dogs away vs Evansville). Won with Bulldogs just 2 days ago in a su win while leaned against ISU this past Fri. Going right back against em today..Think this games sets up very well for IL ST.
> The deeper team
> Stronger Defensively
> Drake lost both games this year when playing with one day less of rest (0-2) and has always struggled with quick turnaround times winning only 1 of 8 in 3 years.
> IL ST solid as a dog 4-2 ats
> IL ST solid vs winning teams (5-2 ats)
Trends aside, ISU is the better team and benefits on the limited rest days against a Drake team not in the same class as Creighton and Wichita (Birds last two opponents). Playing IL ST to bounce back today and remain near the top of the MVC.
