The Towson Tigers head to Philadelphia tonight to take on the Drexel Dragons at Daskalakis Athletic Center. The Tigers are 9-4 on the year after beating Navy in their last game 69-52 and are riding a three game win streak. The Dragons are 5-5 on the season after beating Coppin State 76-69, however, that was on December 14th. This will be Drexel’s first game back after their last four have been postponed. Towson is 4-2 on the road with the 2 losses to San Francisco and a ranked Ohio State squad. Drexel is an undefeated 3-0 at home this season but has not faced anyone that ranks higher than 307th. Towson enters with the better strength of schedule and are scoring 72.8 points per game on 44% from the field and limit offenses to 64.5 point on 40.5% shooting while Drexel is scoring 75.6 points on 45.8% from the floor and are allowing 72.9 points per game on 45.5% shooting. The Tigers own the 66th best adjusted offensive efficiency and excel beyond the arc as they rank 41st in the nation by shooting 37.1% from three which is where the Dragons struggle the most as they rank 312th in the country by allowing 37.4% from beyond the arc on defense. On the other side, Drexel scores most of their points inside the arc as they shoot 51.7% and rank 104th in the nation but they will be up against the stingy Tigers defense who allows just 46.9% inside the arc and rank 86th in the country. Towson, also, should not have to worry about turnovers too much in this game as the Dragons rank 318th in turnover percentage on defense. I am expecting Towson to expose Drexel’s lack of schedule and lack of game play and take care of business by winning by 4-7 points. Additionally, the Tigers are 8-0 ATS in their last 8 games as a road favorite, 5-0 ATS in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a winning home record, 7-0 ATS in their last 7 road games, 10-1 ATS in their last 11 games overall and are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games as a favorite. Take Towson -1.5 (play to -2.5)
