Drake is a team that can make life miserable for opposing teams on the defensive end of the floor. The Bulldogs are excellent defensively as they limited opposing teams to 41% shooting in the regular season. Drake is also a dangerous from the perimeter and they don’t leave points on the floor at the FT line. Before losing to Bradley in the finale, the Bulldogs’ four conference losses came by a combined 12 points. Murray State was handled relatively easily in both meetings by Drake this season, losing by 18 points on the road and by 24 points at home. With DeVries and Penn leading the way, Drake will be too much and should cruise to a big win here on Friday night.
