What to Know

The Liberty Flames have enjoyed the comforts of home their last three games, but now they must head out on the road. They and the Kennesaw State Owls are set to clash at 3 p.m. ET March 5 at KSU Convocation Center in the fourth round of the Atlantic Sun Conference Tourney.

The Eastern Kentucky Colonels typically have all the answers at home, but this past Thursday the Flames proved too difficult a challenge. Liberty snuck past Eastern Kentucky with a 79-73 win. Among those leading the charge for Liberty was guard Colin Porter, who shot 5-for-9 from beyond the arc and finished with 25 points and five boards.

Meanwhile, the Lipscomb Bisons typically have all the answers at home, but this past Thursday Kennesaw State proved too difficult a challenge. Kennesaw State came out on top against the Bisons by a score of 80-71. The Owls' guard Terrell Burden looked sharp as he had 20 points and seven assists along with six rebounds.

The Flames are the favorite in this one, with an expected 4-point margin of victory. They have been consistent moneymakers against the spread when favored (18-9), so they might be worth a quick bet.
