Expect Tightness

Expect this game to be tight the whole way.

Why? It's pretty simple- more history lessons.

Chattanooga has won four straight against Austin Peay, is 7-0 all-time against them in Chattanooga, leads the all-time series 10-6, and it is 6-1 since the Mocs moved to D1.

However, despite all that, in their seven meetings as D1 programs, the largest margin of victory was fifteen, in McKenzie Arena when the Mocs won 77-62 in 2000.

These two teams have a history of playing close games that the Mocs find a way to win. That's basically how I picked this game to go. The Mocs are more than good enough to win this game. They just need to go out and prove it. But don't expect a blowout on either side. They just don't happen in this series.
