Drake is a 16 point underdog at #14 Dayton. Certainly the best opponent that the Bulldogs have faced so far. Have gone 0-2 against teams from Ohio so far as they lost to Cincinnati 81-59 and Miami of Ohio 67-59. Evansville is a 3 point underdog at Wisconsin Green Bay.

Fans who saw the injury have commented on their message board that it looked serious, and they they would be surprised if he doesn't miss an extended period of time. He had an MRI on the leg earlier this week, but there has not been any official announcement what was found or how serious the injury is. The only announcement was yesterday when they said he was "unlikely" to play in tonight's game at Dayton. Dayton is 7-1 and they are undefeated at home. So this will be a very tough test for Drake tonight, though the 15.5 points Dayton is favored by seems a little high. The game is on ESPN+.
After returning from his suspension for the gun-related incident, Murphy has played in 5 games, and has been nowhere near as effective as he was last year. Here are his stats for the 5 games he has played-

He has only averaged 5 ppg and 3.4 rpg over those 5 games. Last season, he averaged 10.4 ppg and 6.2 rpg.
