Southern Jaguars vs Texas Southern Tigers January 1, 2018
The 0-13 Tigers are one of the most interesting stories so far this season. Despite the fact that they have yet to win a game, they are still heavily favored to win their conference, and the bookmakers are asking them to win by double digits here in their home opener versus the Jags. The Tigers have played the toughest schedule in the country according to ESPN BPI, and still they have scored more points per game and shot for a higher percentage than the 4-9 Jags. Last year the Tigers swept the season series, winning by a score of 82-69 at home. The previous season they won by a score of 88-66 at home to Southern. The Jaguars are 0-9 on the road this season, and they are 4-22 on the road the last two seasons. They have failed to cover in four straight road games, and they have scored just 63.4 points per game on 35.9 percent shooting on the road this season. The Tigers have waited a long time for a chance to make a statement in a winnable game, and they should go all out here in their home opener.
