What to Know

The Southern Jaguars haven't won a matchup against the Grambling Tigers since Jan. 9 of 2021, but they'll be looking to end the drought Saturday. The Jaguars will play host again and welcome Grambling to F.G. Clark Center, where tip-off is scheduled for 4 p.m. ET. Both teams seek to continue their momentum from their previous wins.

The Bethune-Cookman Wildcats typically have all the answers at home, but on Monday Southern proved too difficult a challenge. Southern blew past Bethune-Cookman 102-75.

Meanwhile, Grambling didn't have too much breathing room in their game with the Florida A&M Rattlers on Monday, but they still walked away with a 62-57 win.

The Jaguars are the favorite in this one, with an expected 3.5-point margin of victory. They are currently four-for-four against the spread in their most recent games, a trend bettors might want to take into account.
