The Norse will roll out one of the top players in the conference as Trevon Faulkner is averaging 17.3 PPG, but he is supplemented by a solid scoring source with Marques Warrick pitching in 14.7 PPG. The Milwaukee Panthers will struggle to score against the Northern Kentucky half-court defense as they rank 3rd in the conference in points allowed, and I think the Norse will grab a win.
