What to Know

The Texas-Arlington Mavericks have enjoyed the comforts of home their last two games, but now they must head out on the road. They will square off against the North Texas Mean Green at 8 p.m. ET on Thursday at The Super Pit. Given that these two teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.

Texas-Arlington came up short against the Abilene Christian Wildcats on Tuesday, falling 80-71.

Meanwhile, North Texas was close but no cigar on Monday as they fell 69-66 to the Buffalo Bulls.

The Mavericks have to know they'll be fighting an uphill battle given the 10.50 point spread they are up against. True fans might be the only ones betting on them, currently 0-2 ATS, to cover the spread.

Texas-Arlington ended up a good deal behind North Texas when they played when the teams previously met two seasons ago, losing 77-66. Can Texas-Arlington avenge their defeat, or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll soon find out.
