Drexel vs. Towson Prediction
Drexel averages 74.6 PPG which is 177th in the nation and play very slow, almost dead last in pace. This Drexel team shoots the ball efficiently with a 46.8% from the field, but do not shoot the three well only shooting 6.4 three's on average and making them at a rate of 33.7%. The Dragons are average from the charity stripe shooting 72.9%, compared to Towson only shooting 62.7% from the stripe. This will be interesting as I see Drexel getting to the line a lot tonight and converting opposed to Towson.. Drexel grabs 37.3 rebounds on average ranking them 22nd in the nation. They are very solid in the category, and get a lot of offensive boards as well.
As I mentioned how good Drexel is on the glass, Towson is good as well. They average 36.1 rebounds per game accounting for 44th in the nation. This will be a area to watch tonight, especially on the offensive end for Towson as they average 13.2 offensive boards a game ranking them sixth best in the nation. Towson plays slow just like Drexel, yet shoot the three better, however they do not live or die by the three, they like their mid-range shots.
On paper, it looks like Drexel is the better team. They have a 7-0 record in the CAA and their offensive and defensive ratings are better. With that being said, I think Towson gets the job done tonight. I think that May and Tarke have a game, but the factor tonight will be Charles Thompson. I think he matches up well tonight against Drexel and gets his fourth double-double this season. I can see Towson winning this game by a couple possessions.
