What to Know

The Southeast Missouri State Redhawks won both of their matches against the SIU-Edwardsville Cougars last season (64-62 and 69-63) and are aiming for the same result Saturday. The Redhawks and SIU-Edwardsville will face off in an Ohio Valley battle at 5 p.m. ET at Show Me Center.

Southeast Missouri State was just a bucket shy of a win on Thursday and fell 74-73 to the Morehead State Eagles.

Meanwhile, the Cougars were within striking distance but couldn't close the gap on Thursday as they fell 75-70 to the Tennessee State Tigers.

Barring any buzzer beaters, Southeast Missouri State is expected to win a tight contest. They might be worth taking a chance on against the spread as they are currently on a three-game streak of ATS wins.

Both of these teams will be looking to put their recent losses behind them and walk away with a victory. We'll see which team satisfies their hunger and which team leaves with an empty stomach.
