Milwaukee Panthers Betting Preview

The Panthers opened the season with their heads barely above the .500 mark, going 7-6 over the first 13 games. Milwaukee has hit the skids since then, recording just one win in the last seven outings. The losses have come versus Wisconsin, Wright State, Green Bay, Northern Kentucky, Oakland and Fort Wayne otherwise. That gives the Panthers an 8-12 record in their first 20 games.

In the Fort Wayne matchup over the weekend the Panthers were in the locker room with a 48-40 deficit. Milwaukee was outscored 52-42 the rest of the way, leading to a 100-82 loss in the end. Amar Augillard led the team on his 35 points while Josh Dixon chipped in 13 points. Stevie Elam added 11 points with six rebounds in 32 minutes of work on the floor during the defeat.

Robert Morris Colonials Betting Preview

Over on the Colonials’ side, they kicked off the season with a 3-3 stretch over their first six outings. Robert Morris would then win seven of the next eight games with a lone loss to Milwaukee mixed in there. Since then the Colonials are 2-4 with losses to Northern Kentucky, Oakland, Fort Wayne and IUPUI. In their first 20 games of the year the Colonials have managed a 12-8 record overall.

Matched up against Northern Kentucky last weekend the Colonials headed into the second half with a 41-34 lead. Robert Morris lost that lead eventually though, and had to go to overtime to settle a 92-89 road victory. Ryan Prather put up 23 points with four rebounds to lead the way and Nikolaos Chitikoudis had 14 points with 11 rebounds. DeSean Goode added 12 points with 10 rebounds as well.

Milwaukee vs Robert Morris Prediction

I’ll lean toward Robert Morris but you could make a case either way. The Colonials are coming off a nice road win in overtime versus a decent Northern Kentucky team, shooting 46.2 percent from the field with a 41-32 rebounding edge. Robert Morris missed a few free throws though (21-of-31 for 67.7 percent), and had 15 turnovers along the way. The Colonials have gone just 2-4 in their last six games but the last three have been very close (a 1-2 stretch).

These teams last saw each other back on December 6 in a 74-72 home win for the Panthers. In that one Robert Morris blew a first half lead and shot a tepid 41 percent from the field but otherwise did pretty well statistically. This one’s likely to be a close finish as well.
