Jacksonville State at UAB

This could easily be a place where the UAB Blazers could get caught taking a nap. They have had consecutive games against six top opponents and this is really an easy place for them to sleepwalk through a game and take a breather. They also may be a bit rusty having not played since December 6th on semester exam break. Jacksonville St. won't be bringing a name to the arena tonight, but they will be bringing confidence off a 6-1 start and a win at Umass who just upset then ranked Kansas. Jacksonville St. recorded that win on the road. They are a very good shooting team both from the field and deep and boast four players that are connecting at over 40% from deep, which will help them stay in this one. Good spot for the Gamecocks to sneak up on UAB, and I'll back them with the points here.
