The IUPUI Jaguars have had a tough year. They defeated Franklin, Spalding, and Texas A&M-Commerce early this season, then didn’t win any other match until February 4th versus the Green Bay Phonenix. The Jaguars have lost to Wright State Raiders, Northern Kentucky Norse and Oakland Golden Grizzlies since that time.
In the matchup on Wednesday when they played against the Golden Grizzlies, the Jaguars were in two points at the break. They possessed a strong second-half effort but were short 85-81. DJ Jackson headed the team with 23 points and four rebounds in the loss.
MatchPlug Prediction
The IUPUI Jaguars may not have had enough great moments this season, but recently they made a good effort against Oakland and are trying with their scoring. Jaguars have 68 points or more in eight of their past 9 games.
Detroit and IUPUI met back on January 21 in an 89-77 Mercy Titans win at the Indiana Farmers Coliseum. The Jaguars conceded 50 points in the second half then, so they’ll need to play a complete game for today’s rematch.
