The Southern Jaguars and the Bethune-Cookman Wildcats meet in college basketball action from the Moore Gymnasium on Monday night.

Tyrone Lyons leads the Jaguars in scoring with 14.1 PPG along with 4.5 RPG while Brion Whitley has 12.5 PPG and Jayden Saddler has 11.1 PPG with a team-high 4.1 APG to lead the Jaguars in assists and to cap off the trio of double-digit scorers for Southern up to this point in the season. Terrell Williams has 8.8 PPG and Damien Sears leads the Jaguars on the glass with 5.3 RPG as well this season. As a team, Southern is averaging 67.4 PPG on 44.3% shooting from the field, 38.7% from three and 68.3% from the foul line while allowing 66.2 PPG on 47% shooting from the field and 29.9% from three this season.

Southern is 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games overall and 4-0 ATS in their last 4 road games while the under is 22-6 in their last 28 Monday games. Bethune-Cookman is 7-3-1 ATS in their last 11 games overall and 5-2-1 ATS in their last 8 games following a loss while the under is 6-1 in their last 7 Monday games.

I get why points with a home dog like Bethune-Cookman are worth a look, but Southern has been a covering machine for much of the year and it hasn’t been specifically at home or on the road, it’s been across the board. Bethune-Cookman has played well at home, but I think Southern’s the better team so I’ll lay it and play it with Southern here.
