What to Know

The St. Francis (N.Y.) Terriers are 1-5 against the St. Peter's Peacocks since December of 2015, but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit Wednesday. St. Francis (N.Y.) will challenge St. Peter's on the road at 7 p.m. ET at Yanitelli Center. Neither of these teams found much success offensively their last time out, scoring well below their season averages.

The Terriers received a tough blow on Sunday as they fell 68-55 to the Hartford Hawks.

Meanwhile, the Peacocks were close but no cigar on Sunday as they fell 60-58 to the Siena Saints.

St. Francis (N.Y.) is the clear underdog, so they're hoping it's the size of the fight that determines this one. Those sticking with them against the spread have guts, to put it politely, as the team has let down bettors in their past four games.

St. Francis (N.Y.) is now 0-8 while St. Peter's sits at 2-4. Two stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: The Terriers have allowed their opponents to shoot 50.10% from the floor on average, which is the 353rd highest shooting percentage allowed in college basketball. The Peacocks have experienced some struggles of their own as they have only been able to knock down 40.50% percent of their shots, which is the 39th lowest field goal percentage in college basketball. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
