Current Records: Coppin State 1-11; George Washington 2-8

What to Know

The Coppin State Eagles will take on the George Washington Colonials at 6:30 p.m. ET Wednesday at Charles E. Smith Center. Given that both teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this matchup.

The Eagles received a tough blow last Friday as they fell 92-77 to the Cornell Big Red.

Meanwhile, George Washington came up short against the Charlotte 49ers this past Saturday, falling 86-79. One thing holding George Washington back was the mediocre play of guard Joe Bamisile, who did not have his best game: he played for 28 minutes but put up just eight points and four turnovers.

Coppin State is expected to lose this next one by 7.5. However, those who like betting on the underdog should be happy to hear that they are 9-3 against the spread when expected to lose.

Coppin State is now 1-11 while George Washington sits at 2-8. A pair of offensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: The Eagles have only been able to knock down 36.80% percent of their shots, which is the 353rd lowest field goal percentage in college basketball. The Colonials have experienced some struggles of their own as they are stumbling into the game with the 32nd fewest points per game in college basketball, having accrued only 63.9 on average. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
