SIU welcomes Murray State to the Banterra Center for the first time as an MVC member and look to move to 9-2 in the Missouri Valley.
The Racers have had a very up and down year including a win against #49 Texas A&M in their MTE. They only have 2 true road wins this year against #274 Valparaiso in OT and #349 Evansville.
Murray State has been playing a 7 man rotation their last few games with Kenny White out because of his arrest. The Racers are 330th in the country in % of bench minutes used (24.2%).
Racers Leaders:
6'4 Junior Rob Perry: 15.1 PPG, 4.5 RPG, 1.8 APG
6'8 Junior Jamari Smith: 12.3 PPG, 5.2 RPG, 0.9 APG
6'2 Sophomore JaCobi Wood: 12.0 PPG, 4.5 RPG, 4.5 APG, 1.5 SPG
6'7 Junior DJ Burns: 9.0 PPG, 7.2 RPG, 1.0 APG, 0.5 BPG
Last Meeting:

Banterra Center better be 80% or more filled. No excuses. Show up.
So what, if any, disciplinary action does the arrestee face? I found it cryptically amusing, remember I hate Murray like Barkerp hates the team from Peoria, that the player was driving a vehicle with one headlight while breaking laws that will get a person cuffed and stuffed. I am willing to bet his major is not nuclear physics.

Hope the young man gets the help he needs.

Murray State has only TWO true road victories this entire season, one @ Valpo and the other @ Evansville. Still, even without White, I expect this to be a TOUGH game. I'm sure they'll be looking for revenge since we took them out on their home floor. Need to keep the recent trend of strong starts going. Kenpom has SIU winning 67-61. Let's go !!
HEY MURRAY, I’M GONNA BE RIGHT IN YOUR FACE ALL DAMN NIGHT! 😎 😎
BINGO! I will surprised if he doesn’t play Tuesday.Hope the young man gets the help he needs.

Hoping Domask's ankle will be OK. It may have ballooned up on him after the game Saturday.

Yes ... hoping they take a cautious approach with him if warranted as, needless to say, the Salukis need a healthy Marcus for the stretch run.
