The Trojans on the year have been able to play just under the five hundred mark overall, but once they started to play in the Sun Belt this year the Trojans seem to have forgotten how to play basketball. Yes, the Trojans have picked up 4 wins in the Sun Belt, but they have also dropped 8 games. The last Georgia team the Trojans played was Georgia State who beat them 77-63.

The player the Trojans have been able to rely on this year has been Jordon Varnado who has put in a total of 21.5 points a game so far. The passing leader for the Trojans is Darian Adams with 3.5 assist a game. When it comes to rebounding the Trojans have relied on Alex Hicks with 7.8 boards a game. Georgia Southern is coming into this game quite a bit better than the Trojans on the season. The Eagles have been able to post a 15-10 record overall, but in the Sun Belt the Eagles stand at 7-5 on the season. The last game out for the Eagles was a 75-65 victory over the South Alabama squad.

Tookie Brown has been able to lead the Eagles on the year with 17.5 points a game and 5.1 assist a game. When it comes to cleaning up the glass the Eagles have been able to get 7 boards a game from Montae Glenn so far this season.

The Eagles are playing at home and the Eagles are also a strong team in the Sun Belt so far this year. Look for that to be a contributing factor in this game. Even with the decent play from Varnado the Trojans will struggle to contain a better performance from a rounded team that is not relying on a single player. Final Score Prediction, Georgia Southern Eagles win and cover ATS 75-65.
