What to Know

The Western Kentucky Hilltoppers and the Texas-San Antonio Roadrunners will face off in a Conference USA clash at 4 p.m. ET Feb. 12 at UTSA Convocation Center. WKU will be strutting in after a victory while Texas-San Antonio will be stumbling in from a defeat.

The Florida Atlantic Owls typically have all the answers at home, but on Thursday the Hilltoppers proved too difficult a challenge. WKU beat Florida Atlantic 76-69. Center Jamarion Sharp was the offensive standout of the game for WKU, picking up 15 points along with nine rebounds and seven blocks. Sharp has also now had at least three blocks in his past four games.

Meanwhile, the Roadrunners came up short against the Middle Tenn. Blue Raiders on Monday, falling 84-75.

The Hilltoppers are the favorite in this one, with an expected 10-point margin of victory. They are currently three-for-three against the spread in their most recent games, a trend bettors might want to take into account.

WKU's win brought them up to 13-11 while Texas-San Antonio's loss pulled them down to 8-17. A pair of offensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: WKU enters the contest with a 47.60% field goal percentage, good for 29th best in college basketball. On the other end of the spectrum, Texas-San Antonio has only been able to knock down 38.50% percent of their shots, which is the 354th lowest field goal percentage in college basketball. We'll see if the Hilltoppers' 9.10% advantage translates to a win.
