This is the back end of a long road trip for Jax State. They got blown out at UNLV Saturday and tonight take on the Ducks -- who haven't left home yet and just hammered Vandy by 26.
Jacksonville State will try to muddy up the game since they can't shoot particularly well (21% from 3) and hope to just score on a lot of garbage buckets.
Oregon should control the glass -- they've got a +7.6 rebounding differential. Jax State's differential is -2.3 -- and that includes games against Reinhardt, Eastern Michigan and Alabama A&M.
I'm always worried about the OVC backdoor cover on the road against a Power 6 team -- so I'll fly with the Ducks in the first half.
Good luck to everybody tonight.
