Belmont (12-3, 3-1 OVC) at Jacksonville State (12-5, 4-0) – 8:15 PM EST (ESPN+)

Tonight’s UTR Game of the Day takes us to Jacksonville, Alabama where the hometown Gamecocks will play the Belmont Bruins for the second time this season. JSU won the first meeting between the teams earlier this month with an 83-73 victory against the Bruins in Nashville. Detrick Mostella and Jason Burnell both had 19 points in that game for JSU. The Gamecocks also handed Eastern Illinois (who is hosting Murray State in a pivotal league game themselves tonight) their only loss in the Ohio Valley so far this season as well.

After a brief two-game swoon that saw losses to Jacksonville State and Purdue on the road, Belmont has quietly won their last three games in conference play – however, they were teams near the bottom of the conference (Eastern Kentucky, Morehead State and Tennessee Tech) and at home. Dylan Windler currently leads the Bruins with 18.7 points per game and 9.0 rebounds per game.
