ANALYSIS: These teams split in the regular season, each winning by four on the other’s court. Both teams are bad defensively, with McNeese State a little worse. But the Cowboys have a distinct advantage in shooting. McNeese State shoots 46.4 percent, which ranks 52nd nationally, while Southeastern Louisiana ranks 325th at 39.6 percent. McNeese won three of six down the stretch while SE Louisiana dropped six of seven. Lay the small number.
