The Sycamores will make it rain from long range, attacking the Bulldogs' weak perimeter defense from start to finish. They shoot nearly 65 percent at the rim, as well. Drake's interior defense has been weak this season, as its opponents shoot 63.8 percent at the rim. The Bulldogs have blocked only 5.4 percent of their shots at the rim and average only 1.9 blocks per game. ISU will move the ball around for open looks (17.1 assists per game) and attack the paint to draw fouls (75.4 FT%).

Drake should be able to keep pace for the majority of Wednesday's game. The Bulldogs didn't have their A-game at Belmont, but they should respond at home, especially in the first half. They have been tough to defend at the rim this season, where they shoot nearly 69 percent. Like Drake, Indiana State does not have rim protectors, as it blocks just 4.9 percent of its opponents' rim field goals. ISU averages nearly 18 fouls per game, which the Bulldogs are equipped to take advantage of (76.2 FT%).

I project 164 points in Wednesday's game, giving over bettors plenty of room to cash a winning bet.
