Presbyterian @ Charleston Southern

Current Records: Presbyterian 8-12; Charleston Southern 4-14

What to Know

After a two-game homestand, the Presbyterian Blue Hose will be on the road. Presbyterian and the Charleston Southern Buccaneers will face off in a Big South battle at 7 p.m. ET Wednesday at Buccaneer Fieldhouse. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W.'

The Blue Hose were just a bucket shy of a win this past Saturday and fell 71-70 to the Longwood Lancers.

Meanwhile, the contest between Charleston Southern and the South Carolina Upstate Spartans this past Saturday was not a total blowout, but with Charleston Southern falling 70-57 on the road, it was darn close to turning into one.

Presbyterian is the favorite in this one, with an expected 5.5-point margin of victory. They are currently three-for-three against the spread in their most recent games, a trend bettors might want to take into account.

The losses put Presbyterian at 8-12 and the Buccaneers at 4-14. Two defensive numbers to keep in mind before tip-off: The Blue Hose have allowed their opponents to shoot 45.40% from the floor on average, which is the 45th highest shooting percentage allowed in college basketball. Charleston Southern has experienced some struggles of their own as they are ninth worst in college basketball in points allowed per game, with 78.1 on average. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
