What to Know

The James Madison Dukes will hit the road for the second straight game as they head to Burr Arena at 7 p.m. ET Tuesday. After both teams made easy work of their previous opponents, one of them is set up to suffer a discouraging change of fortune.

James Madison simply couldn't be stopped this past Saturday, as they easily beat the Buffalo Bulls on the road 97-62.

Meanwhile, the Howard Bison were fully in charge on Sunday, breezing past the Gallaudet University Bison 108-56 at home.

The Dukes are the favorite in this one, with an expected 9.5-point margin of victory. They have been consistent moneymakers against the spread when favored (3-0), so they might be worth a quick bet.

James Madison is now a perfect 3-0 while Howard sits at 2-2. Two stats to keep an eye on: James Madison enters the contest with a 58.40% field goal percentage, good for fifth best in college basketball. Less enviably, Howard has allowed their opponents to shoot 48.60% from the floor on average, which is the 22nd highest shooting percentage allowed in college basketball. So the cards are definitely stacked against Howard.
