Detroit Still Looking for First Win
It’s been a long season for Detroit and they come into this game with an 0-13 record overall in the Horizon Conference standings. There has to be some major concerns right now about if they win one game this season. In the last game against NC State the offense scored 66 points but that wasn’t nearly good enough as they were defeated 17 points. Marcus Tankersley put up 20 points, two rebounds, and one assist. Detroit on the season is averaging 61.4 points while their defense is giving up 77.8 points per game. The offense just hasn’t been good and they need to find a way to get the offense going here.
IUPUI Has Had Some Issues
Before the last game, IUPUI had lost four games in a row and the defense had been a major issue. A few games ago against Minnesota, IUPUI gave up 101 points and the offense only managed 65 points. IUPUI is averaging 67.2 points while their defense is giving up 77.6 points per game. The offense is ranked 324th and against a defense that has had struggled this season the offense is going to need to be a whole lot better. Jlynn Counter is averaging 16.2 points while shooting 51 percent from the field.

The better offensive team is IUPUI and they are going to have no issue running up the score here. Look for IUPUI to have no issue running up the score and that is going to be the difference here as they are going to get the job done with ease. Back IUPUI to cover the spread here.
