Current Records: College of Charleston 7-3; Stetson 3-6

What to Know

The College of Charleston Cougars will take on the Stetson Hatters at 7 p.m. ET Thursday at Edmunds Center. Both teams seek to continue their momentum from their previous wins.

On Sunday, the Cougars narrowly escaped with a victory as the squad sidled past the Presbyterian Blue Hose 78-76.

Meanwhile, the sound you heard on Monday was the absolute smackdown Stetson laid on the Johnson (FL) Suns.

College of Charleston is the favorite in this one, with an expected 4.5-point margin of victory. Those burned by picking them against the spread on Sunday might want to keep in mind that the team has not yet dropped back-to-back games against the spread this season.

The wins brought College of Charleston up to 7-3 and Stetson to 3-6. A pair of defensive numbers to keep in mind before tip-off: College of Charleston is seventh worst in college basketball in points allowed per game, with 79.5 on average. The Hatters have experienced some struggles of their own as they have allowed their opponents to shoot 45.10% from the floor on average, which is the 52nd highest shooting percentage allowed in college basketball. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
