My Prediction
South Dakota State Jackrabbits by 9Get ready for a barn burner in the Summit League tonight folks, sorry... fellow sports fanatics! We've got the Oral Roberts Golden Eagles swooping in at #25 against the unranked South Dakota State Jackrabbits.
The Golden Eagles seem to be soaring lately with a fantastic 24-7 record in the regular season, and that's not just the wind beneath their wings either. Powerhouse and double threat Taleyah Jones is blasting the court with 20.8 points and 4.8 rebounds per game in the last month. Jalei Oglesby is right there with her, pushing an impressive 20.5 points per game. Ruthie Udoumoh is not to be overlooked, she's like a sponge on the court soaking up 8.4 rebounds per game.
Now, on the other side of the court, those Jackrabbits, with an enviable 28-3 regular season. The Meyer duo have been creating their own dynamic duo, as Brooklyn Meyer's putting in 18 points per game and Paige Meyer's not just laying up with 17.6 per game but also racking up a pesky 5.6 assists. Haleigh Timmer and Madison Mathiowetz round out a strong attack with some balanced contributions.
Looking at past face-offs, the Jackrabbits have been hopping all over the Golden Eagles, with a winning streak, and to be honest, some fairly wide margins too.
So, the Golden Eagles have a theoretical shiny rank, but the Jackrabbits are managing to pull more victories out of their hats while hopping circles around their opponents. Regardless of the rankings, past performances have shown a stronger game from the Jackrabbits, which is pretty decisive in my book.
