The Owls have not won a single game against North Alabama in their most recent matchups, going 0-7 since January of 2019.

Kennesaw State entered their game against the Queens University Royals this past Saturday without any home losses -- but there's a first time for everything. Kennesaw State fell to Queens University 83-76.

Meanwhile, the Eastern Kentucky Colonels typically have all the answers at home, but this past Saturday the Lions proved too difficult a challenge. North Alabama managed a 98-93 win over the Colonels.

Barring any buzzer beaters, the Owls are expected to win a tight contest. The odds have been favorable for them against the spread on the road this season, even if it's been tough sledding overall. They are 9-4-1 ATS in away games but only 16-9-1 all in all.
