What to Know
The Arkansas-Pine Bluff Golden Lions haven’t won a contest against the Alabama A&M Bulldogs since Feb. 11 of 2019, but they’ll be looking to end the drought Monday. Arkansas-Pine Bluff’s road trip will continue as they head to Elmore Gymnasium at 8 p.m. ET to face off against Alabama A&M. The Golden Lions aren’t favored, but they just beat the odds in their last game, so don’t count them out.
Arkansas-Pine Bluff didn’t have too much breathing room in their matchup with the Alabama State Hornets this past Saturday, but they still walked away with a 75-70 win.
Meanwhile, it was a close one, but this past Saturday Alabama A&M sidestepped the Mississippi Valley State Delta Devils for a 94-92 victory.
The wins brought Arkansas-Pine Bluff up to 6-19 and the Bulldogs to 6-16. A couple stats to keep an eye on: The Golden Lions have allowed their opponents to shoot 49% from the floor on average, which is the 355th highest shooting percentage allowed in college basketball. Alabama A&M has experienced some struggles of their own as they have only been able to knock down 37.40% percent of their shots, which is the 358th lowest field goal percentage in college basketball. It’s possible one of these Achilles’ heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
