Can the College of Charleston Pick up Another Road Win?

In the second half, the defense gave up only 29 points on the way to the victory. The most impressive part of this squad is the balanced attack.

The Cougars are averaging 77.4 points, while their defense is giving up 74.2 points per game. Charleston has done a good job of getting out to fast starts, averaging 37.11 points per first half, and jumping out to a fast start will be key here.

Does Drexel Have Confidence?

The big question for Drexel is how much momentum they gained in the last game. The Dragons went on the road and picked up the 78-74 victory over Delaware. The offense scored 45 points in the first half, and jumping out to a fast start will be key. Drexel used a balanced attack, with four of the five starters putting up at least 10 points. Jason Drake paced the team, putting up 14 points, six rebounds, and two assists. Two games ago against William & Mary, the offense only scored 59 points, and they ended up losing by 13 points.

One of the more interesting stats for Drexel is they have a losing record at home, winning only 4 of the 10 games while still having a .500 record overall. Drexel’s defense has been the team’s strength, giving up 67.3 points per game, and to succeed in this game, they will need the defense to step up again.

College of Charleston vs Drexel Prediction

The College of Charleston has been good away from home this season, something that hasn’t been the case for Drexel at home. The Drexel defense is good, giving up 67.3 points per game, but they aren’t going to find success against an elite offense with the Cougars. College of Charleson averages 77.4 points per game, and they will put on a show with the offense. The best player on the court here is Brzovic, and Drexel will struggle to slow him down. Don’t be scared off because the College of Charleston is on the road; they will come out on top. Back the College of Charleston against the spread here.
