Despite this only being the second conference game of the season, history has proven that battles between these two schools are always pivotal. In fact, since the 2012-13 season, one team has either won the regular season title or the conference tournament.
The Jaguars enter tonight’s contest after opening conference play with a 68-56 victory over Prairie View. SUBR had a pair of pre-conference near misses falling to #22 Baylor by only four points and #9 Iowa State by 10, a game in which they led at halftime. The Tigers come in as arguably the hottest team in the SWAC. They topped Alcorn State 72-55 in its conference opener Saturday. TSU also knocked off #25 Michigan State, Kansas State and suffered a one point loss at Auburn.
