What to Know

The Kennesaw State Owls are 0-7 against the Liberty Flames since January of 2019, but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit Monday. Kennesaw State has the luxury of staying home another game and will welcome Liberty at 7 p.m. ET Jan. 31 at KSU Convocation Center. The Owls are out to stop a six-game streak of losses at home.

Kennesaw State received a tough blow this past Saturday as they fell 71-58 to the North Alabama Lions.

Meanwhile, Liberty came up short against the Jacksonville State Gamecocks this past Saturday, falling 77-67. That makes it the first time this season Liberty has let down their home crowd.

Kennesaw State is expected to lose this next one by 4.5. They have failed bettors playing the spread in their past two games, so buyers beware.

With both teams hitting sour notes in their previous games, they will no doubt be looking to produce a better outcome in this one. The teams are out to make things right after dropping matches they were expected to win, so stay tuned to see which team bounces back.
