What to Know

The E. Tennessee State Buccaneers and the UNCG Spartans are set to square off in a Southern matchup at 4 p.m. ET Feb. 25 at Freedom Hall Civic Center. These two teams come into the matchup bolstered by wins in their previous games.

The Buccaneers bagged a 78-70 victory over the The Citadel Bulldogs on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, UNCG didn't have too much trouble with the Western Carolina Catamounts at home on Wednesday as they won 71-52.

E. Tennessee State is expected to lose this next one by 6.5. Their home court has been no bettor's paradise, as they've failed to beat the spread in 11 of their 15 home games.

E. Tennessee State found themselves the reluctant recipients of an unfortunate 91-65 punch to the gut against UNCG in the teams' previous meeting earlier this month. Maybe E. Tennessee State will have more luck at home instead of on the road? Watch the game and check back on CBS Sports for all the details.
