Coppin State comes in on a streak of failing to score more than 54 points in their last four games, a trend the squad is of course eager to reverse.

Coppin State was expected to have a tough go of it last Thursday, and, well, they did. They were the victim of a painful 75-53 defeat at the hands of the Terrapins. Coppin State was in a tough position after the first half, with the score already sitting at 38-18.

Coppin State's defeat came about despite a quality game from Toto Fagbenle, who scored 12 points along with nine rebounds. As a matter of fact, that's the most points Fagbenle has scored all season.

Meanwhile, Delaware State had to suffer through a three-game losing streak, but that streak is no more. They secured a 77-73 W over the Mountaineers on Saturday. The victory was just what Delaware State needed coming off of a 79-50 loss in their prior matchup.

The Eagles' loss was their tenth straight on the road, which bumped their record down to 1-13. That rough patch could be blamed on the team's lackluster offensive performance across that stretch, as they only averaged 51.8 points per game. As for the Hornets, their win bumped their record up to 7-9.

While only Delaware State took care of their fans the last time they played, both teams pleased bettors by covering the spread.
