What you need to know about Chattanooga

It was close, but the Mocs ultimately beat Tennessee State by a final score of 66-63 last week. The Mocs have now won three games in a row by three points, so they’re schooled in tough battles and the opportunity to begin their conference schedule against one of the best teams in the league with a win would solidify them as potential contenders.

Wright State transfer Malachi Smith is averaging 17.1 points, 11.7 rebounds and 3.7 assists as a combo guard, but the Mocs will be without David Jean-Baptiste (18.0 ppg) after he entered the transfer portal earlier this month. Forward Stefan Kenic is a Cleveland State transfer who is averaging 13.1 points and 4.3 rebounds per game and he’ll continue to be a big part of the Chattanooga game plan on Wednesday.

What you need to know about Furman

Meanwhile, Furman simply couldn’t be stopped last Monday, as the Paladins easily beat the South Carolina State Bulldogs at home 118-51. Furman is averaging 87.1 points per game as a team this season, which is good for 20th in the nation. Mike Bothwell has NIT experience from his freshman season and he’s averaging 17.6 points, 5.3 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game.

Furman has also dominated this series over the years. In fact, Furman is 8-2 in its last 10 meetings against Chattanooga. In addition, the Paladins are 6-1 against the spread in their last seven games against the Mocs.
