What to Know

The Southeastern Louisiana Lions are on the road again Saturday and play against the Southern Jaguars at 6:30 p.m. ET Dec. 11 at F.G. Clark Center. Both teams come into the matchup bolstered by wins in their previous games.

The Troy Trojans typically have all the answers at home, but on Sunday Southeastern Louisiana proved too difficult a challenge. The Lions skirted past Troy 72-68. It took five tries, but Southeastern Louisiana can finally say that they have a victory on the road.

Meanwhile, Southern strolled past the Lindsey Wilson Blue Raiders with points to spare on Thursday, taking the game 86-68.

Southeastern Louisiana is expected to lose this next one by 5. 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.

The Lions had enough points to win and then some against the Jaguars when the teams previously met five seasons ago, taking their contest 64-53. Will Southeastern Louisiana repeat their success, or does Southern have a better game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
