Over on the Chicago State side, they won their first two games of the year but haven’t been able to string together consecutive victories since then. The Cougars are riding an 0-4 stretch right now. They last fell to Tarleton State over the weekend. 

In the Tarleton matchup on Saturday, the Cougars were competitive the whole way but ultimately couldn’t overcome the opposition in a 57-54 loss. Leading scorer Brandon Betson posted 16 points, and Coreyoun Rushin added 15 rebounds.

Meanwhile, the Lumberjacks are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 after an ATS win and 6-1 ATS in their last seven Thursday games. The under is 10-2 in Stephen F. Austin’s last 12 Thursday games. 

PICK: I’m staying with Stephen F. Austin here. The Lumberjacks have looked good over this 3-0 run; they’ve hit 78 or more points in each game and held opponents to fewer than 60 points in two of them. Stephen F. Austin shouldn’t have much trouble putting up points here. 

As for Chicago State, they’re in a major rut right now and I don’t think they’ve got the offense to hang around. The Lumberjacks should be in full control on a cover.
