What to Know

Abilene Chr. has enjoyed a two-game homestand but will soon have to dust off their road jerseys. They and the Southern Utah Thunderbirds will face off in a WAC battle at 8:30 p.m. ET on Thursday at America First Event Center. Southern Utah is favored, but seeing as the odds didn't stop Abilene Chr. in their last game, maybe the squad has another upset up their sleeve.

Even though Abilene Chr. has not done well against the Antelopes recently (they were 0-4 in their previous four matchups), they didn't let the past get in their way on Saturday. The Wildcats came out on top against the Antelopes by a score of 79-73. That's two games straight that Abilene Chr. has won by exactly six points.

Meanwhile, Southern Utah's recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Thursday after their fifth straight loss. They took a 90-85 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Mavericks. Having run the score up that high, both teams might be doing some extra defensive drills very soon.

The Wildcats' win bumped their record up to 12-15. As for the Thunderbirds, they have been struggling recently as they've lost six of their last seven contests, which put a noticeable dent in their 9-18 record this season.

While only Abilene Chr. took care of their fans the last time they played, both teams pleased bettors by covering the spread. Going forward, Southern Utah is expected to win a tight contest, barring any buzzer beaters. They have not treated fans well this season (a 9-18 ensrues that), but at least they enjoy a 16-9 record against the spread.

Abilene Chr. lost to the Thunderbirds on the road by a decisive 82-67 margin in their previous meeting back in January. Can Abilene Chr. avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
