Middle Tenn State at South Alabama

South Alabama has an 8-5 record, but when you consider the fact the five losses have come to Western Kentucky, Louisville, Arkansas, Mississippi, and Mississippi State, the Jags are 8-0 when playing teams on their level. S. Alabama shoots the ball very well with four starters 47% or higher from the floor and have a go-to scorer in Tilford (19.3 points per game). Middle Tennessee has the same 8-5 record, but the record is tainted as the Blue raiders have three non-Div1 wins and a fourth over Norfolk State. This team has spent some time in the trainer’s room as well, as only five players have seen action in all 13 games. South Alabama gets the call here.
