Current Records: Chicago State 4-9; Grand Canyon 10-2
What to Know
The Grand Canyon Antelopes are 10-0 against the Chicago State Cougars since January of 2016, and they'll have a chance to extend that success on Thursday. Grand Canyon and Chicago State will face off in a WAC battle at 8 p.m. ET at Grand Canyon University Arena. Coming off of a win even when the odds were against them, the Antelopes have to be feeling especially confident now that the spread is in their favor.
Grand Canyon escaped with a win two weeks ago against the San Francisco Dons by the margin of a single free throw, 49-48.
Meanwhile, Chicago State was pulverized by the Drake Bulldogs 87-50 last Wednesday.
Grand Canyon is now 10-2 while the Cougars sit at 4-9. Two stats to keep an eye on: The Antelopes have been holding their opponents to a field goal percentage of 37%, which places them 10th in college basketball. Less enviably, Chicago State has only been able to knock down 37% percent of their shots, which is the 354th lowest field goal percentage in college basketball. So the cards are definitely stacked against Chicago State.
