Southern @ Bethune-Cookman

Current Records: Southern 13-14; Bethune-Cookman 10-18

What to Know

The Bethune-Cookman Wildcats are home Saturday, but with the point spread against them by 5.5 points, it might not be quite the welcoming they would prefer. Bethune-Cookman and the Southern Jaguars will face off in an SWAC battle at 4 p.m. ET at Moore Gym. The Wildcats aren't expected to win, but seeing as the odds didn't stop them last game, maybe the team has another upset up their sleeve.

Bethune-Cookman didn't have too much breathing room in their contest with the Alabama State Hornets on Monday, but they still walked away with a 70-65 win.

Meanwhile, Southern was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap on Saturday as they fell 69-64 to the Grambling Tigers.

Bethune-Cookman found themselves the reluctant recipients of an unfortunate 102-75 punch to the gut against Southern in the teams' previous meeting in January. Maybe Bethune-Cookman will have more luck at home instead of on the road? Watch the game and check back on CBS Sports for all the details.
