Villanova Wildcats vs Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders 11/21/2019
Villanova WildcatsThe Villanova Wildcats are boasting great talent in their roster today in Saddiq Bey and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl — both players fighting to get their stock up in next year’s NBA draft. They had a grim reminder that teams have marked them and the loss against Ohio State Buckeyes is proof that they can be beaten. In that loss, Robinson-Earl only had 8 points in 3-of-11 shooting while Saddiq Bey only scored 2 points and missed seven shots. Coming in as the underdogs against the Blue Raiders, Bey and Robinson-Earl needs to bring their best game in order to make this game closer than it seems. Players to Watch: S. Bey (14.3 PPG, 5 RPG, 1.3 APG), J. Robinson-Earl (14.3 PPG, 5 RPG, 1.3 APG), C. Swider (11.8 PPG, 3.8 RPG, 1.3 APG). Middle Tennessee Blue RaidersThe Blue Raiders are glad to host this game against the Wildcats after suffering their first loss at the hands of Coastal Carolina Chanticleers. In that match, Antonio Green had a decent night with 18 points and seven rebounds but CJ Jones was the leader with 21 points. They need other players to step up and that means the rest of the starters Tyrese Jackson, Jayce Johnson and Donovan Sims. Green and Jones will be lethal and should be a big load for the Wildcats but with other players improving their numbers would ensure the victory of the Blue Raiders. Players to Watch: A. Green (23.5 PPG, 4 RPG,3.8 APG, 2.3 SPG), CJ Jones (20 PPG, 3.3 RPG, 1 APG, 2 SPG, 1.5 BPG), J. Johnson (11.3 PPG, 6.3 RPG, 2.8 APG, 1 SPG).
