The Horizon is giving off some home-oriented vibes but some pre-New Year's team trends might still be worth noting. Such as with the Norse, who made an attempt to slow the pace vs. guns-blazing IU Indy last Thursday but otherwise trending over since the start of December, as five of six landed that way before the clash vs. the jumpin' Jags (which still landed on 153 points). Darrin Horn seems to have NKU back on course with four scorers in the teens including CS Fullerton transfer G Donovan Oday (15.8 ppg), who has emerged as a super sixth man. Meanwhile the Penguins have capable scorers led by F Cris Carroll (16.8 ppg), and these teams combine for 160 ppg. Play YSU-NKU Over
