The Missouri State Bears are going to be playing with a chip on their shoulder tonight as they still did not crack the top 25 this week. They beat a top 5 team (Wisconsin) and lose in OT to a top 15 team (OK State) and are 9-1. They will be out to try to get some love from the St Louis area writers tonight. Also St Louis' top scorer has a cut on his shooting hand and will require some fingers to be taped together. He is going to play but it will be interesting to see how well he shoots. I like Mo State to win this one by 7 to 9 points tonight. Free throws will be a key and Mo State shoots them well. St Louis is only shooting about 65% from the line. I would lean towards the OVER but will only play,
