What to Know

The Montana Grizzlies will take on the Prairie View A&M Panthers at 12:50 p.m. ET Saturday at Delmar Fieldhouse. Montana will be strutting in after a victory while Prairie View A&M will be stumbling in from a loss.

After constant struggles on the road, the Grizzlies have finally found some success away from home. They were able to grind out a solid win over the North Dakota State Bison on Saturday, winning 82-75.

Meanwhile, Prairie View A&M came up short against the Illinois-Chicago Flames on Tuesday, falling 70-61. Guard Hegel Augustin (20 points) was the top scorer for Prairie View A&M.

Montana is the favorite in this one, with an expected 6-point margin of victory. They have been consistent moneymakers against the spread when favored (3-1), so they might be worth a quick bet.

The Grizzlies are now 5-5 while the Panthers sit at 4-6. A couple offensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Montana is 42nd worst in college basketball in points per game, with only 66.5 on average. Prairie View A&M has experienced some struggles of their own as they have only been able to knock down 41.90% percent of their shots, which is the 51st lowest field goal percentage in college basketball. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
