What to Know

The Old Dominion Monarchs will take on the Pennsylvania Quakers at 12:30 p.m. ET Sunday at HTC Center. Given that both teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.

This past Friday, Old Dominion lost to the East Carolina Pirates by a decisive 73-60 margin. Despite the defeat, the Monarchs got a solid performance out of Kalu Ezikpe, who had 16 points along with eight boards.

Meanwhile, the contest between UPenn and the Davidson Wildcats this past Friday was not particularly close, with the Quakers falling 72-60. One thing holding UPenn back was the mediocre play of guard Jordan Dingle, who did not have his best game: he played for 27 minutes with.

Barring any buzzer beaters, Old Dominion is expected to win a tight contest. Neither team has fared well against the spread -- they are 1-3, while UPenn are 2-4.

The losses put the Monarchs at 2-3 and UPenn at 2-4. A pair of numbers to keep in mind before tip-off: Old Dominion is 26th worst in college basketball in points per game, with only 61.6 on average. UPenn has experienced some struggles of their own as they are stumbling into the matchup with the 30th most points allowed per game in college basketball, having given up 79.3 on average. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
