Their offensive/defensive efficiency stats are comparable. St. Louis is #117 in offensive efficiency and Ill. State is #142. Both are not good defensively at #227 and #228. They are dead even in rebounding percentage. There are three stats that jump out and all three favor Ill. State. St. Louis is #225, averaging 18.6 TOs a game while Ill. State is #100 at 16.3. St Louis is #124, shooting 34.9% from beyond the arc while Ill. State is a strong #39 at 38.3%. Neither defends the three well but St. Louis is terrible at #298. The most dramatic discrepancy is at the FT line. St. Louis is almost dead last at #339, shooting a woeful 63.5%, Illinois State is #7 in the nation at 80.8%. I'll trust those three factors to bring the dog home a winner.
