What to Know

The High Point Panthers and the South Carolina Upstate Spartans will face off in a Big South clash at 4 p.m. ET Feb. 18 at Qubein Center. Both teams come into the game bolstered by wins in their previous games.

The Panthers sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 71-69 win over the Presbyterian Blue Hose on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, the Longwood Lancers typically have all the answers at home, but on Wednesday South Carolina Upstate proved too difficult a challenge. South Carolina Upstate snuck past Longwood with a 72-67 victory.

Barring any buzzer beaters, High Point is expected to win a tight contest Saturday. They are currently two-for-two against the spread in their most recent games, a trend bettors might want to take into account.

In the teams' previous meeting last month, High Point lost to the Spartans on the road by a decisive 76-57 margin. Maybe the Panthers will have more luck at home instead of on the road? Watch the matchup and check back on CBS Sports for all the details.
