What to Know

After three games on the road, the Southern Miss Golden Eagles are heading back home. They will take on the Jacksonville Dolphins at 8 p.m. ET on Tuesday at Reed Green Coliseum. Jacksonville should still be riding high after a big victory, while the Golden Eagles will be looking to right the ship.

Southern Miss has to be hurting after a devastating 66-41 defeat at the hands of the Southern Illinois Salukis last week. Guard Jaron Pierre Jr. wasn't much of a difference maker for Southern Miss; Pierre Jr. finished with only six points on 2-for-11 shooting in his 33 minutes on the court.

Meanwhile, Jacksonville made easy work of the UNC-Wilmington Seahawks this past Saturday and carried off a 77-48 win.

Southern Miss is expected to lose this next one by 3.5. Those betting on them against the spread shouldn't have high expectations for them since the team is 0-5 ATS when expected to lose.

The Golden Eagles are now 4-5 while the Dolphins sit at 5-3. A couple stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Southern Miss is 10th worst in college basketball in points per game, with only 61.4 on average. Jacksonville's defense has more to brag about, as they they enter the game with only 55.3 points allowed per game on average, good for fifth best in college basketball. So the cards are definitely stacked in their favor.
