What to Know

Get ready for a Sun Belt battle as the Texas State-San Marcos Bobcats and the Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks will face off at 3 p.m. ET Saturday at Fant-Ewing Coliseum. If the game is anything like their last meeting in December, where Louisiana-Monroe won 57-53, we could be in for a big score.

Texas State-San Marcos came out on top in a nail-biter against the Arkansas State Red Wolves on Thursday, sneaking past 61-58.

Meanwhile, the Warhawks ended up a good deal behind the Louisiana Ragin Cajuns when they played on Thursday, losing 86-73.

Barring any buzzer beaters, the Bobcats are expected to win a tight contest. But bettors beware: they are only 1-4-1 against the spread when favored.
