What to Know

The Charleston Southern Buccaneers and the UNC-Asheville Bulldogs are set to square off in a Big South matchup at 7 p.m. ET Jan. 18 at Buccaneer Fieldhouse. The teams split their matchups last year, with UNC-Asheville winning the first 85-66 and the Buccaneers taking the second 79-78.

Charleston Southern was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap this past Saturday as they fell 75-70 to the Radford Highlanders.

Meanwhile, UNC-Asheville didn't have too much breathing room in their contest with the Gardner-Webb Bulldogs this past Saturday, but they still walked away with a 72-67 win.

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

Charleston Southern got away with a 79-78 win when the two teams previously met in March of last year. Their victory shoved UNC-Asheville out of the playoffs, so they have a target on their back.
