Southern Mississippi at Florida Atlantic

The Florida Atlantic Owls are in the midst of a very poor season, as they play host to Southern Miss. The Owls have not won a game vs. a Division-1 opponent since November 21st, and on the season stand in at just 2-14. The Owls aren't just losing, they are losing by an average of over 10 points per game. Florida Atlantic is shooting just 39% on the season, and connect on a woeful 29% from deep. Southern Miss isn't any better at 4-10, but what the Golden Eagles do better is defend, as they have allowed just 41.8% shooting against them compared to 46% for the Owl's opponents. Their ability to defend a bad shooting team should be the difference maker in this one. Play on Southern Miss.
