Islanders vs Colonels
Islanders and Colonels Set for Pivotal Southland Rematch
Texas A&M-Corpus Christi @ Nicholls
February 24 | 7:30pm ET | David R. Stopher Gymnasium
Grade B+: Nicholls Moneyline
The Nicholls Colonels, led by forward Diante Smith's 15.2 points per game, are determined to rebound from their recent 61-57 defeat to the Texas A&M-Corpus Christi Islanders on January 25, 2025. In that matchup, the Colonels struggled offensively, shooting just 36.2% from the field. Conversely, the Islanders, with guard Garry Clark averaging 14.5 points per game, have maintained a solid defense, allowing an average of 68.8 points per game this season. Given Nicholls' strong 9-4 home record and motivation to avenge their prior loss, betting on the Colonels to secure a win at -155 odds is a strategic choice. Both teams report no significant injuries ahead of the matchup. Prediction Grade: B+
Grade B+: Texas A&M-Corpus Christi +3.5
The Texas A&M-Corpus Christi Islanders, led by guard Garry Clark's 14.5 points per game, have demonstrated resilience, recently securing a 61-57 victory over the Nicholls Colonels on January 25, 2025. In that matchup, the Islanders' defense limited the Colonels to a 36.2% field goal percentage. Nicholls, with forward Diante Smith averaging 15.2 points per game, boasts a strong 9-4 home record this season. However, the Islanders have covered the spread in five consecutive road games against conference opponents. Considering the Islanders' recent success against the Colonels and their strong performance against the spread, betting on Texas A&M-Corpus Christi to cover the +3.5 point spread at -110 odds is a strategic choice. Both teams report no significant injuries ahead of the matchup. Prediction Grade: B+
Grade A-: Under 147 Points
In their previous encounter on January 25, 2025, the Texas A&M-Corpus Christi Islanders edged out the Nicholls Colonels with a 61-57 victory, a game characterized by defensive intensity and low shooting percentages—36.2% for Nicholls and 37.0% for Texas A&M-Corpus Christi. The Islanders have maintained a solid defense throughout the season, allowing an average of 68.6 points per game, while the Colonels concede 70.1 points per game. Given both teams' defensive capabilities and the outcome of their last meeting, betting on the under 147 total points at -110 odds is a prudent choice. Both teams report no significant injuries ahead of the matchup. Prediction Grade: A-
