The Charlotte 49ers and Florida Atlantic Owls face off on Friday in a college basketball showdown at FAU Arena. 

The Charlotte 49ers have looked really good at times, but other times they have looked like a team that might have issues winning many games the rest of the year. On the season, Charlotte sits with a 6-6 record overall but they have lost two of the last three games. The one win for Charlotte was in their last game against UAB, a game they were able to win 70-55. Charlotte on the season is averaging 64.3 points per game while their defense is giving up 62.4 points per game. Charlotte is shooting 45.6 percent from the field and 34.4 percent from behind the three point line. Against a stronger offensive team, Charlotte needs their defense to be strong. 

On the other side of this matchup is the Florida Atlantic Owls who sits with a 7-6 record overall and they come into this game having won two games in a row. Each of the last two games, Florida Atlantic has also covered the spread. In the last game against FIU the offense was elite putting up 107 points and that led to a victory. FAU comes into this game averaging 71.6 points per game while their defense is giving up 71 points per game. Jailyn Ingram has been the best player for FAU and on the season he is averaging 15.8 points while shooting 50 percent from the field and 50 percent from behind the three point line. 

The under is 14-3 in Charlotte’s last 17 games played on Friday. Charlotte is 20-44 against the spread in their last 64 road games. The over is 6-2 in FAU’s last eight games against Conference USA. FAU is 6-14 against the spread in their last 20 games played on Friday. 

FAU has a perfect record at home and their offense is going to be the difference again in this game. Look for the pace of this game to be fast and for this game to go over the posted total. 

The pick in this article is the opinion of the writer, not a PickDawgz site consensus.
