E. Tennessee State @ Murray State

Current Records: E. Tennessee State 2-2; Murray State 3-0

What to Know

The Murray State Racers will take on the E. Tennessee State Buccaneers at 5:30 p.m. ET Monday at Community School of Naples. Both teams seek to continue their momentum from their previous wins.

While not quite a landslide, the contest between the Racers and the Illinois State Redbirds last Tuesday was still a pretty decisive one as MSU wrapped it up with a 77-65 win on the road.

Meanwhile, E. Tennessee State didn't have too much trouble with the South Carolina Upstate Spartans at home this past Thursday as they won 56-43.

MSU is the favorite in this one, with an expected 5.5-point margin of victory. They have been consistent moneymakers against the spread when favored (2-0), so they might be worth a quick bet.

MSU is now a perfect 3-0 while E. Tennessee State sits at 2-2. A couple offensive numbers to keep in mind before tip-off: The Racers enter the matchup with a 53.80% field goal percentage, good for third best in college basketball. On the other end of the spectrum, the Buccaneers have only been able to knock down 36% percent of their shots, which is the 348th lowest field goal percentage in college basketball. We'll see if MSU's 17.80% advantage translates to a win.
