Meanwhile, Kansas State lost to St. John's on the road by a decisive 88-71 margin last Saturday.

The loss doesn't tell the whole story though, as several players had good games. One of the most active was Brendan Hausen, who went 6 for 10 from beyond the arc en route to 27 points. The team also got some help courtesy of David N'Guessan, who went 6 for 10 en route to 15 points plus seven rebounds and two blocks.

Some high-performance offense is likely on the agenda as both are some of the highest scoring teams in the league. Drake hasn't had any problem running up the score this season, having averaged 75 points per game. However, it's not like Kansas State struggles in that department as they've been averaging 80.4. With both teams so easily able to put up points, the only question left is who can run the score up higher.

Drake is hoping to beat the odds on Tuesday, as the experts think they're headed for a loss. For those looking to play the spread, take note: they are a solid 3-0 against the spread when playing as the underdog.
