Samford returns all five starters and is favored to win the Southern Conference, but the Bulldogs are off to a rough start this season with a 2-5 record while shooting only 44.9 percent. Meanwhile, Jacksonville State is allowing only 69.3 points per game and just a .409 field goal percentage. The Gamecocks held Alabama State to just 35.5 percent from the field and five of 17 from 3-point range in their 77-69 win on Thursday. Only two players scored in double figures for the Gamecocks, Christian Cunningham amd Cam Martin with 12 each. Three starters return from a team that won the Ohio Valley Conference championship in coach Ray Harper's first year at the helm. Samford is 17-8 UNDER its last 25 non-conference games, and Jacksonville State is 12-2 UNDER its last 14 home games. Take the UNDER.
