What to Know
The Coastal Carolina Chanticleers and the Georgia Southern Eagles will face off in a Sun Belt clash at 2 p.m. ET Feb. 12 at HTC Center. Given that these two teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this contest.
The game between the Chanticleers and the Georgia State Panthers on Thursday was not a total blowout, but with Coastal Carolina falling 61-50 at home, it was darn close to turning into one.
Meanwhile, Georgia Southern was close but no cigar on Thursday as they fell 65-61 to the App. State Mountaineers.
The losses put Coastal Carolina at 12-11 and Georgia Southern at 11-11. A pair of stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Coastal Carolina is stumbling into the matchup with the 51st fewest takeaways in college basketball, having accrued only 11.4 on average. The Eagles have experienced some struggles of their own as they are 19th worst in college basketball in turnovers per game, with 15 on average. It’s possible one of these Achilles’ heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
