Tonight the Southeast Missouri State Redhawks will travel to Bowling Green, OH to take on the Bowling Green Falcons. The Redhawks are coming off two wins in a row and are looking to keep that momentum going tonight against the Falcons. SEMO has a very young, athletic roster, but they also lack solid chemistry and experience. Nino Johnson will definitely be one of SEMO's top scorer's tonight as he is averaging 14.5 PPG, 6 RPG, and 2 BPG while shooting 68.6% in field goals. Jarekious Bradley is also another guy to keep an eye on. He is currently the team's top scorer with an average of 17.5 PPG. Antonius Cleveland is a very athletic guy who can move quickly. He averages 12 PPG and 5.5 RPG.
Bowling Green will have the home court advantage, but since it's Thanksgiving break there may not be a lot of student support tonight. The Falcons are 2-0 so far with wins against Drake and Wright State. They will look to keep that winning streak going tonight against SEMO. While they may not have a player that is scoring as much as the three I mentioned for SEMO, they do have more players scoring. Which leads me to believe that they play better as a team. Bowling Green will have to keep the rebounds up and try to draw fouls against SEMO to pull it off.
Overall this should be a very good game. I think SEMO has a really good chance to pull off the victory, but in the end I think the lack of chemistry and discipline will be the downfall for the Redhawks. SEMO also has a tendency to let teams get close to within them in the last minutes of the half. I think that Bowling Green has more experience and better chemistry and will pull off the victory by a score of 71-59.
