Washington State vs. Drake Analysis
Drake is a draw no power team wanted to see. This team is old, experienced, and led by one of the best players in the country — not just mid-majors — in Tucker DeVries.
The Bulldogs might close a betting favorite and have proven they can beat high-level competition by blasting Nevada and taking down Indiana State twice.
Drake is the best defensive rebounding team in the country, very key against a Wazzu team that usually has an edge on the offensive glass with their elite size.
Myles Rice is Wazzu’s stud guard, but Drake has plenty of “Bulldogs” to throw at him and make him uncomfortable.
