Evansville’s second matchup of the year versus St. Louis was a tricky one. The Aces led 39-37 by halftime but lost 83-65 after a pretty miserable second half. The Aces’ Yacine Toumi doubled up with 14 points and 10 rebounds.
PICK: I’m going to take a stab on Evansville here. The Aces were competitive versus Miami-OH in their opener and managed to power out a close win. In the second outing versus St. Louis, Evansville had control of the game but faltered after a rough second half. Southeast Missouri State probably won’t put up a ton of points here, so if Evansville manages their shot selection well I think the Aces can keep the pace. Should be a good matchup regardless.
