Bethune-Cookman and the Grambling Tigers will face off in an SWAC battle at 7:30 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 squad has another upset up their sleeve.

The Southern Jaguars typically have all the answers at home, but this past Saturday Bethune-Cookman proved too difficult a challenge. Bethune-Cookman beat Southern 60-53.

Meanwhile, Grambling didn't have too much trouble with the Florida A&M Rattlers on the road this past Saturday as they won 69-55.

A pair of stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: The Wildcats have only been able to knock down 41.20% percent of their shots, which is the 17th lowest field goal percentage in college basketball.
