Fla. International is an 8-16 team who is 4-5 ATS at home and hosting an 18-6 S. Alabama team who is 7-3 ATS on the road. In their last 3 away games, S. Alabama has 3 wins, won 3 times ATS and has held their opponents to just 59ppg. S. Alabama is 5-1 on the road against teams that are 200 and worse and 9-1 overall against such teams. Furthermore, they are playing solid ball having won road games in double digits at Troy State, Arkansas LR, and North Texas. They are playing wonderful defense both away and at home and that will be tough for the Fla. International offense to handle; reason being, Fla. International has scored just 62ppg this season and has been letting up almost 70ppg. S. Alabama, on the other hand, has been playing much better basketball on the offensive side as well; averaging more than 72ppg. They also have been shooting a higher % from the floor, turning the ball over less and have a much deeper bench than Fla. International. Surely I. Almonte will get his points and rebounds in this game, but he is the only Fla. International player who will be significant. Look for S. Alabama to play much better team basketball on both ends of the floor, they will keep Fla. International to a small number in this one as South Alabama covers the 5 points. Two stars on S. Alabama.
