Indiana State vs SIU-Edwardsville Prediction
SIU Edwardsville is getting the benefit of the doubt because it’s at home and has looked harp through two games, picking up where it left off last season. However, you can argue Indiana State is the better team overall with a takeover scorer like Sterling Young and a roster made up of seniors and juniors. That blowout loss to Charlotte doesn’t look good, but Indiana State is a decent team in the MVC and should be eager to redeem itself. I’ll grab the free bucket with the Sycamores on Monday night.
