The Bowling Green Falcons will try to build on a 73-72 win over Oakland in their last game. Daeqwon Plowden leads the Falcons in scoring and rebounding with 15.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG while Joe Reece has 10.4 PPG with 7.1 RPG as the only other double-digit scorer for Bowling Green so far this season. Myron Gordon has 9.8 PPG and Samari Curtis has a team-high 2.6 APG as well this season. As a team, Bowling Green is averaging 77.2 PPG on 40.8% shooting from the field, 31.7% from three and 75.8% from the foul line while allowing 74.7 PPG on 40.6% shooting from the field and 34.2% from three this season.

Robert Morris is 0-5 ATS in their last 5 road games and 0-5-1 ATS in their last 6 games against a team with a winning record while the over is 6-0 in their last 6 games following a double-digit home loss. Bowling Green is 6-24-2 ATS in their last 32 home games and 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games overall while the over is 4-1 in their last 5 games following a win.

The Falcons are a team I had high hopes for coming into the season, and sure, there’s still time to make a big move once conference play kicks off. With that said, there’s little hope for Robert Morris right now, as the Colonials were having issues making the jump to the Horizon League last season and this season, replacing last year’s leading scorer in AJ Bramah has proven to be problematic for the Colonials. I just think this is a game where Bowling Green takes over and beats up on Bobby Moe so give me the Falcons laying the points here.
