What to Know
The Kent State Golden Flashes and the #21 Indiana Hoosiers are set to clash at 9:55 p.m. ET March 17 at MVP Arena in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Kent State should still be riding high after a victory, while the Hoosiers will be looking to right the ship.
Kent State earned some more postseason success in their matchup on Saturday. They enjoyed a cozy 93-78 win over the Toledo Rockets. Five players on Kent State scored in the double digits: guard Sincere Carry (26), guard Malique Jacobs (18), forward Chris Payton (17), forward Miryne Thomas (12), and guard Jalen Sullinger (12). Chris Payton’s performance made up for a slower game against the Akron Zips last Friday.
Meanwhile, IU was close but no cigar on Saturday as they fell 77-73 to the Penn State Nittany Lions. The losing side was boosted by forward Trayce Jackson-Davis, who posted a double-double on 24 points and ten rebounds in addition to seven dimes.
Kent State is expected to lose this next one by 4.5. They are currently four-for-four against the spread in their most recent games, however, a trend bettors might want to take into account.
Indiana’s defeat took them down to 22-11 while Kent State’s victory pulled them up to 28-6. In Kent State’s win, Sincere Carry had 26 points and Malique Jacobs dropped a double-double on 18 points and 13 boards along with six assists. We’ll see if the Hoosiers have a strategy for dealing with them or if they lead their team to another successful outing.
