Seattle vs Evansville Betting Prediction
Evansville finished the regular season by losing eight of their last nine games, but they were able to pick up a close win against Quinnipiac on Sunday. The Purple Aces didn’t find much success in the MVC this season, but they did play against better competition than Seattle did. Seattle went 11-9 in conference play in the WAC and they played very well in the second half against Delaware State on Sunday. Both teams are pretty similar when looking at the season numbers and I think either team could pick up the win, so give me Evansville with the points here. The winner of this game will face Chicago State vs Fairfield in the next round.
