What to Know

Cent. Arkansas has enjoyed a two-game homestand but will soon have to dust off their road jerseys. They and the Bellarmine Knights will face off in an Atlantic Sun battle at 6:30 p.m. ET on Thursday at Freedom Hall. Given that the pair suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this match.

Last Saturday, the Bears lost to the Bisons at home by a decisive 85-68 margin.

Meanwhile, Bellarmine's recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Saturday after their fourth straight defeat. They fell 75-65 to the Colonels. The loss unfortunately continues a disappointing trend for Bellarmine in their matchups with the Colonels: they've now lost three in a row.

The Bears dropped their record down to 9-20 with that defeat, which was their fourth straight at home. As for the Knights, they have traveled a rocky road recently having lost 14 of their last 16 matchups, which put a noticeable dent in their 6-21 record this season.

Thursday's match is shaping up to be a scrappy game: Cent. Arkansas have been smashing the glass this season, having averaged 36.3 rebounds per game. It's a different story for Bellarmine, though, as they've been averaging only 32.4 rebounds per game. Given Cent. Arkansas' sizable advantage in that area, the Knights will need to find a way to close that gap.

Cent. Arkansas is hoping to beat the odds on Thursday, as the experts think they're headed for a loss. This contest will be their 14th straight as the underdogs (so far over this stretch they are 6-7 against the spread).
