WISCONSIN-GREEN BAY +19 - Missouri may be nationally ranked and off to a 4-0 start, but this is an awful lot of points to give a Green Bay team that comes to play every night. Also, the Tigers figure to be a tired club after flying across the country following their 6-point win at USC on Saturday. That was actually their first meeting with a Division I school this season, as their first 3 victories came at the expense of Cal State-Sacramento, Austin Peay, and American University. This will be the second straight Big 12 opponent for the Phoenix, which is coming off of a 68-64 victory over Kansas State. Green Bay may be just 2-3 on the season, but they are only losing their contests by an average of 6.8 points. Besides their victory over Kansas State, their only other lined game was a 17-point loss to a very good Wisconsin team, a margin that would STILL be good enough to cover this game. I look for the Phoenix to take advantage of some tired Missouri legs and hang in this game, ultimately falling by about 10-12 points.

I'm not so sure, boss.

UWGB has one shot, and one shot only: Slow this game down!

Missouri should be able to contain the Phoenix fairly easily, tonight, but I don't think GB can stop them. I was looking at a 1st half play in this game.

I think UWGB catching 11 points in the first half is a better bargain. They will have the illusion of actually being in this game, while the score is stil close.:D

A team that got spanked by Alaska-Fairbanks, gets no nod from me, in the total picture.

1 unit-----UWGB +11 (1st half)

This was an easy winner. A little more scoring than I thought, but Wisconsin kept right with them!

I hope they play a sound 2nd, and bring it home for you, Eugene!

buddy, just an FYI

buddy, just an FYI

Wade, Swartz, and Williams left UWGB either before the start of the year or right when practice started, so UWGB has been dealing with those absences the whole season.
