Robert Morris vs Wright State Prediction
I’ll stick with Wright State. The Raiders didn’t have too much trouble with a struggling IUPUI team in a home win this week, hitting 52.7 percent from the field with 85.2 percent (23-of-27) from the line. Wright State added a 31-19 rebounding advantage but did have 14 turnovers. The Raiders have won three of their last four, scoring a combined 187 points in their last two games.
When these teams last met up back on February 4, Wright State took a loss on the road 72-66. In that one the Raiders shot just 35.4 percent from the field while giving up 48.3 percent on defense. The 3-point shooting (5-of-20 for 25 percent) wasn’t great either but Wright State did have a 40-35 edge on the boards. I’d like to see that shooting percentage come up considerably in the home rematch Sunday.
