What to Know
The SE Missouri State Redhawks and the SIUE Cougars will face off in an Ohio Valley clash at 4:30 p.m. ET on February 17th at First Community Arena. SE Missouri State is no doubt hoping to put an end to a 16-game streak of away losses dating back to last season.
Last Thursday, things could have been worse for the Redhawks, but they could have been a whole lot better as they took a 75-57 loss to the Panthers.
Meanwhile, SIUE had to suffer through a three-game losing streak, but that streak is no more. They blew past the Lions, posting a 91-63 win at home. Winning is a bit easier when your shooting is a whole 15.7% better than the opposition, as SIUE's was.
The Redhawks have not been sharp recently as the team's lost six of their last seven matches, which put a noticeable dent in their 8-18 record this season. As for the Cougars, their win bumped their record up to 14-12.
SE Missouri State will be fighting an uphill battle on Saturday as the experts have pegged them as the 11.5-point underdog. There could be an interesting gambling play in this one: they are only 6-17-1 against the spread overall, but they're a solid 6-3 ATS vs. SIUE across their last nine meetings.
SE Missouri State beat the Cougars 52-47 when the teams last played back in January. The rematch might be a little tougher for SE Missouri State since the team won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
