Valparaiso has been undefeated at home, while Southern Indiana has been winless on the road and have a terrible defense, allowing 11.7 points per game more than Valpo, who also are the 34th-best team in the country in fewer turnovers. I expect a comfortable win for the home team, so take Valparaiso and lay the points in this one.
