South Dakota State Jackrabbits by 7
Here we have the Oral Roberts Golden Eagles going head to head with the South Dakota State Jackrabbits. Look at the past matchups, the Jackrabbits seem to have a horseshoe somewhere, having won all five previous games. The Golden Eagles, though spirited, might be indulging in a bit of wishful thinking if they hope to snatch the victory from under the Jackrabbits' noses this time around, given that track record.
Let's talk about some of the standout players. For the Golden Eagles - Taleyah Jones and Jalei Oglesby. Jones is dishing out 20.8 points on average per game, pretty impressive. Oglesby's not far behind, contributing an average of 20.5 points in the last month. Both of them are shining pretty brightly, I must admit.
Now, for the Jackrabbits, the Meyer duo is making good noise. Paige Meyer, with a monthly average of 17.6 points, seems to be outdoing herself this season. And then there's Brooklyn Meyer, who's clocked in at 18.0 points per game on average for the last month.
However, there's something refreshing in how our underdogs, the Golden Eagles, are entering the field with a 24-7 record. In comparison, the Jackrabbits boast a rather handsome 28-3 record. Even the recent results seem to echo a similar sentiment.
Now, the AP ranking raises an eyebrow. The Jackrabbits have an AP ranking of zilch. Yep, that's a big fat zero, my friends. On the flipside, we have the Golden Eagles, perched at #25. Now, that's a difference you cannot ignore.
Taking all of this into account, it's clear this game is going to be riveting. However, lest we forget the stats and the past, our winner, in my humble obnoxious opinion, appears to be South Dakota State Jackrabbits. I'd say by approximately a 7-point lead.
