The Drake Bulldogs and Tarleton State Texans face off on Monday in a college basketball showdown at the Sports and Fitness Center. 

Drake comes into this game with a 4-0 record and they are coming off another big victory on Sunday. The defense locked down against Wyoming giving up only 56 points, and they were able to win by five points. Drake only gave up 18 points in the first half and if they have strong defense again in this game, they are going to be very hard to beat. Overall this season Drake is averaging 75.3 points while their defense is giving up 62 points per game. Tucker DeVries has been the top player for Drake so far this season and he is averaging 19.3 points while shooting 48.7 percent from the field and 27.8 percent from deep. There are four different players averaging at least 10 points per game. 

On the other side of this matchup is Tarleton State who sits with a 3-1 record, and they are coming off a big victory on Sunday. The defense locked down Boston College giving up only 54 points and that led to the 16-point victory. Guard Freddy Hicks had a strong game finishing with 21 points, six rebounds, and three assists. There were three players that finished with at least 13 points. Tarleton State is averaging 78.3 points while their defense is giving up 61.5 points per game. Jakorie Smith has been the top player for Tarleton State averaging 11.3 points while shooting 57.1 percent from the field. There are four different players that are averaging at least 10 points per game. 

This game is going to be low scoring. These are both defenses that have been good, and the defense was the reason both teams won their game on Sunday. Look for both offenses to really struggle against these stingy defenses and that will be the difference as this game is going to stay under the total.
