What to Know

Get ready for a Summit battle as the Oral Roberts Golden Eagles and the Denver Pioneers will face off at 4 p.m. ET Saturday at Hamilton Gymnasium. Oral Roberts will be strutting in after a victory while Denver will be stumbling in from a defeat.

While not quite a landslide, the matchup between the Golden Eagles and the Nebraska Omaha Mavericks on Thursday was still a pretty decisive one as Oral Roberts wrapped it up with a 100-88 win on the road.

Meanwhile, the contest between Denver and the UMKC Kangaroos on Thursday was not a total blowout, but with Denver falling 72-61 at home, it was darn close to turning into one.

Oral Roberts is the favorite in this one, with an expected 7-point margin of victory. They have failed bettors playing the spread in their past three games, so buyers beware.

Oral Roberts had enough points to win and then some against Denver in the teams' previous meeting last month, taking their game 83-66. The rematch might be a little tougher for Oral Roberts since the team won't have home-court advantage. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
