The Austin Peay Governors and the USF Bulls meet in college basketball action from the Yuengling Center on Thursday night.
The Austin Peay Governors will look to build on their 98-74 win over subdivision Milligan last time out. Shon Robinson led the way with 27 points on 10 of 16 shooting with a team-high 9 rebounds, 5 assists and a whopping 6 steals while Caleb Stone-Carrawell has 12 points on 5 of 7 shooting with a pair of threes, 6 assists and 4 steals of his own. Sean Durugordon had 11 points on 5 of 9 shooting with a pair of steals to cap off the scoring in double figures for Austin Peay in the win. Elijah Hutchins-Everett also had 8 points with 8 rebounds as well in the victory.
The USF Bulls will look to rebound from three straight losses after a 68-67 loss to Stetson last time out. Jamir Chaplin and Tyler Harris each had 15 points with Chaplin shooting 6 of 10 with 6 rebounds while Harris shot 6 of 11 with a team-high 4 assists. Russel Tchewa added 11 points on a perfect 5 of 5 shooting with 7 rebounds to cap off the group of double-digit scorers for USF in the loss. Tchewa also had a team-high 7 rebounds and Keyshawn Bryant also had 7 rebounds as well in the defeat. Selton Miguel also had a team-high 4 assists in the win.
Austin Peay is 6-1 ATS in their last 7 road games against a team with a losing home record and 6-1 ATS in their last 7 Thursday games while the under is 7-1 in their last 8 games following a win. USF is 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games against a team with a winning percentage below .400 and 1-6 ATS in their last 7 home games against a team with a road winning percentage below .400 while the under is 5-0 in their last 5 games following an ATS loss.
I get the case to be made for either side here, but I like the under. USF games aren’t high scoring as it is, but now the Bulls contend with an Austin Peay team that’s scored just 47 PPG against two D-I opponents this season. I think this one’s just going to be a physical, first to 60 wins type of game, so give me the under.
