Tennessee State @ Georgia State

Current Records: Tennessee State 1-5; Georgia State 4-2

What to Know

The Georgia State Panthers will be returning home after a two-game road trip. They will take on the Tennessee State Tigers at 8 p.m. ET on Wednesday at GSU Sports Arena. Given that both teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.

It's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 94-59, which was the final score in Georgia State's tilt against the Rhode Island Rams this past Saturday. The losing side was boosted by Kane Williams, who had 19 points and seven assists in addition to five rebounds.

Meanwhile, Tennessee State was close but no cigar on Sunday as they fell 82-80 to the Southern Jaguars. The contest was as close as the oddsmakers predicted, but the Tigers had been the slight favorite coming in.

Georgia State is now 4-2 while Tennessee State sits at 1-5. Two numbers to keep in mind before tip-off: Georgia State enters the matchup with 18.5 takeaways on average, good for 26th best in college basketball. Less enviably, Tennessee State is 352nd worst in college basketball in turnovers per game, with 18.2 on average.
