KenPom predicts a 70-69 win or 50% chance of winning. The Raiders are middle of the road offensively and defensively. On defense, they rank 158th allowing 103.1 points per 100 possessions. They allow opponents to shoot 37.1% from three (307th) and 52.9% from two (277th). They compensate by forcing turnovers at a 20.3% clip (87th) only allowing 26.3% offensive rebounding (83rd) and not fouling (FTA/FGA is 29.9% which ranks 86th).

On offense, they rank 142nd (105.8/100). They are an average shooting team (177th in effective FG%) but shoot FTs well (74.7% ranking 46th). The also keep turnovers low (17.8% ranks 97th) and hit the offensive rebounds well (31.1% ranking 88th).

The Raiders come in having won 7 of 8.

What a first half! I thought Wright State was making a mistake trying to run with NKU. Drew missed a lay-in at 40-24 that could have built the lead to 18. Thought the Raiders would have been done. Oh well, Tate will be good to go in the 2nd half.

Norse lose 81-77. Too many bad threes down the stretch. Tate technical was a killer. Now tied for first in Horizon.
