What to Know

A Conference USA battle is on tap between the Marshall Thundering Herd and the Old Dominion Monarchs at 7 p.m. ET Thursday at Henderson Center. These two teams seek to continue their momentum from their previous wins.

Marshall netted an 88-79 victory over the Texas-El Paso Miners on Sunday.

Meanwhile, Old Dominion was able to grind out a solid win over the UAB Blazers on Sunday, winning 81-72.

Barring any buzzer beaters, the Thundering Herd are expected to win a tight contest. Those who got lucky with them against the spread on Sunday might want to hold off on placing bets this time since the team has yet to string together back-to-back wins against the spread.

Marshall is now 9-16 while Old Dominion sits at 10-15. Two stats to keep an eye on: Marshall is stumbling into the matchup with the 12th most points allowed per game in college basketball, having given up 77 on average. The Monarchs have experienced some struggles of their own as they are 53rd worst in college basketball in points per game, with only 66.4 on average. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
