Head Coach Darian DeVries knows his Drake Bulldogs need to get back to shooting the 3-BALL with consistency. The Bulldogs are a woeful (13-50) in their last three home affairs but surprisingly still won two of three. They held off winless Evansville after getting a 13-point win over Bradley but got beat up in the other home game, a loss to Southern Illinois. Valpo was able to knock off the Bulldogs at home back on January 11th (66-61) in a game where Drake was just (2 for 20 ) from three point range.
Look for Wilkins, Murphy & Jackson to all knock down multiple triples in this one and Drake to pull away in the final 8 minutes to win by 7-15 points at the Knapp Center.
