What to Know
Get ready for a Sun Belt battle as the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers and the Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks will face off at 7 p.m. ET Thursday at HTC Center. Louisiana-Monroe will be strutting in after a victory while Coastal Carolina will be stumbling in from a defeat.
It was close but no cigar for the Chanticleers as they fell 84-80 to the Middle Tenn. Blue Raiders last week.
Speaking of close games: it was close, but Louisiana-Monroe ultimately received the gift of an 80-77 win from a begrudging Lamar squad last Monday.
Coastal Carolina is the favorite in this one, with an expected 4.5-point margin of victory. Those burned by picking them against the spread last week might want to keep in mind that the squad has not yet dropped back-to-back games against the spread this season.
Coastal Carolina is now 7-4 while the Warhawks sit at 8-4. Louisiana-Monroe is 6-1 after wins this season, and the Chanticleers are 3-0 after losses.
