What to Know
The Northern Iowa Panthers will be returning home after a two-game road trip. Northern Iowa and the Missouri State Bears will face off in a Missouri Valley battle at 2 p.m. ET on Sunday at McLeod Center. The Panthers are out to keep their three-game home win streak alive.
Northern Iowa came out on top in a nail-biter against the Illinois State Redbirds on Tuesday, sneaking past 72-70. Guard AJ Green and forward Noah Carter were among the main playmakers for Northern Iowa as the former had 20 points along with six boards and the latter had 23 points. Carter hadn’t helped his team much against the Loyola Chicago Ramblers on Sunday, so this was a nice turnaround for him.
Meanwhile, MSU was able to grind out a solid win over the Indiana State Sycamores on Tuesday, winning 79-70. Forward Gaige Prim took over for MSU, finishing with 32 points (a whopping 41% of their total) in addition to 11 rebounds.
The Panthers got away with an 85-84 win in the teams’ previous meeting in January. Will they repeat their success, or do the Bears have a better game plan this time around? We’ll find out soon enough.
