Not too many good match ups today...
Centenary vs IUPUI- This is the mismatch of the day, IUPUI is athletic and has a big in Glenn that the Gents have no answer for. IUPUI 81 Centenary 58
SUU vs Oakland- SUU hasn't won a road game all year, unless Baker goes off for 60, the Thunderbirds will have no chance vs an Oakland team that has won 13 straight Summit League games at home. Oakland 81 SUU 67
ORU vs WIU- The good news for the Necks is that they finally have a win after beating cellar dweller Centenary. The bad news is that they'll now have to deal with an ORU team that will be motivated after a tough loss at IUPUI. ORU 69 WIU 56
Game of the Night
UMKC vs IPFW- Both of these teams have just two wins and as teams begin to enter the stretch run a win here would help either stay in the middle of the pack. A key if you want to avoid Oakland or IUPUI in round 1.
IPFW is very tough at home(6-2 for the season), but UMKC does have four road wins. This game could come down to Yearby for IPFW vs Cousinard for UMKC. Both forwards average over 13 points per game and capable of having big games. Look for Yearby to get the better of the match up. IPFW 71 UMKC 69
