What to Know

The Indiana State Sycamores are 2-11 against the Missouri State Bears since January of 2016, but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit Tuesday. The Sycamores and MSU will face off in a Missouri Valley battle at 7 p.m. ET at Hulman Center. The Bears will be strutting in after a victory while Indiana State will be stumbling in from a defeat.

Indiana State was close but no cigar this past Saturday as they fell 75-73 to the Valparaiso Beacons. A silver lining for Indiana State was the play of guard Cameron Henry, who had 25 points in addition to six boards.

Meanwhile, MSU beat the Loyola Chicago Ramblers 79-69 this past Saturday. Guard Isiaih Mosley took over for MSU, finishing with 40 points (a whopping 51% of their total) along with eight rebounds.

The Sycamores are expected to lose this next one by 5.5. Now might not be the best time to take Indiana State against the spread since they've let down bettors for the past three consecutive games.

Indiana State's loss took them down to 8-10 while Missouri State's win pulled them up to 15-6. Mosley will be someone to keep an eye on after he had 40 points along with eight rebounds this past Saturday. Let's see if he can build on that strong performance or if Indiana State's defense can bottle him up.
