The wheels have fallen off the wagon, as FIU has lost six consecutive games. Nonetheless, Jayden Brewer has been lighting it up with 14 points and 5 rebounds per game. FIU's record is quite surprising, as they have some talented players across the roster. However, things have begun to snowball on them after a tough start to conference play.

Defensively, Kennesaw State has been solid, allowing opponents to score less than 80 points in their last 5 games. This is an improvement from the poor defense the Owls were playing earlier in the year.

FIU is a team we have looked to back because of their individual players and the potential to buy low on them. Kennesaw State is a team we have faded against the tougher teams in the conference. The Owls are scrappy and have hung with the top squads. At home this is a great spot for the Owls to win 77-70.
