What to Know

The Texas State-San Marcos Bobcats have the luxury of staying home another game and will welcome the Georgia Southern Eagles at 8 p.m. ET Jan. 26 at Strahan Coliseum. Neither of those teams managed to put together many points in their previous contests, so their meeting could be a low-scoring affair.

The Bobcats came up short against the Louisiana Ragin Cajuns on Saturday, falling 60-51.

Meanwhile, Georgia Southern didn't have too much breathing room in their contest with the Georgia State Panthers on Saturday, but they still walked away with a 58-52 win.

Barring any buzzer beaters, Texas State-San Marcos is expected to win a tight contest Thursday. But bettors beware: they are only 1-5-1 against the spread when favored.

Georgia Southern's victory lifted them to 12-9 while Texas State-San Marcos' defeat dropped them down to 10-11. We'll see if Georgia Southern can repeat their recent success or if Texas State-San Marcos bounces back and reverse their fortune.
