The Evansville Aces and the Vermont Catamounts meet in college basketball action from Hertz Arena on Tuesday.
The Evansville Aces come into this game looking to shake off a 109-104 loss at the hands of Rice last time out. hamar Givance leads the Aces in scoring and assists with 13 PPG and 4 APG while Evan Kuhlman has 10.8 PPG with 4.2 RPG and Jawaun Newton has 10.4 PPG with a team-high 4.8 RPG to cap off the trio of double-digit scorers for Evansville up to this point in the season. As a team, Evansville is averaging 63 PPG on 42% shooting from the field, 34.4% from three and 66.7% from the foul line while allowing 71.3 PPG on 48% shooting from the field and 36.7% from three this season.
The Vermont Catamounts will look to bounce back from a 63-61 loss to Oakland in their last game. Ryan Davis leads the Catamounts in scoring with 18 PPG along with 7 RPG while Ben Shungu has 14.8 PPG with 5.3 RPG. Isaiah Powell has 12 PPG with a team-high 8 RPG and 2.8 APG as well this season. As a team, Vermont is averaging 66.2 PPG on 41% shooting from the field, 27.6% from three and 71.2% from the foul line while allowing 57.6 PPG on 37.3% shooting from the field and 25.4% from three this season.
The line will be released soon, but it may be cutting it close to tip-off before we get it out there, so my initial lean is towards Vermont here. The Catamounts are just the better team and I’m just worried for Evansville that we’ll see the repeat performance from the loss to Belmont. Give me the Canamounts in this one.
