What to Know

The Gardner-Webb Bulldogs lost both of their matches to the High Point Panthers last season on scores of 55-59 and 69-72, so they're hoping to turn the tables this season. Gardner-Webb and High Point will face off in a Big South battle at 7 p.m. ET Wednesday at Qubein Center. The Bulldogs should still be riding high after a win, while High Point will be looking to right the ship.

While not quite a landslide, the contest between Gardner-Webb and the Radford Highlanders this past Saturday was still a pretty decisive one as Gardner-Webb wrapped it up with a 61-42 victory at home.

Meanwhile, the Panthers were within striking distance but couldn't close the gap this past Saturday as they fell 77-72 to the Campbell Fighting Camels.

Barring any buzzer beaters, Gardner-Webb is expected to win a tight contest. They are currently three-for-three against the spread in their most recent games, a trend bettors might want to take into account.

The Bulldogs' win brought them up to 11-10 while High Point's loss pulled them down to 9-12. A couple numbers to keep in mind before tip-off: Gardner-Webb ranks 24th in college basketball when it comes to blocked shots per game, with 5.1 on average. The Panthers are completely their equal: they also come into the matchup with 5.1 blocked shots per game. Points in the paint might be hard to come by.
