Morehead State vs Southern Indiana Prediction 

Both of these teams come into this matchup after playing Little Rock in their last game, but Morehead State was the only team to get a win in that matchup. The Eagles have lost three of their last four games and they are shooting 45% from the field. Southern Indiana has lost three games in a row and they have scored 62 and 55 in their last two. The Screaming Eagles are shooting just 40% from the field and even with Morehead State struggling to get stops, I am not confident in Southern Indiana’s offense. Take the under here.
