What to Know
The Howard Bison haven’t won a game against the Coppin State Eagles since Feb. 23 of 2019, but they’ll be looking to end the drought on Monday. The Bison and Coppin State will face off in an MEAC battle at 7:30 p.m. ET at Burr Arena. Howard will be strutting in after a win while the Eagles will be stumbling in from a loss.
The Morgan State Bears typically have all the answers at home, but this past Saturday Howard proved too difficult a challenge. Howard was fully in charge, breezing past Morgan State 88-56 at home.
Meanwhile, Coppin State took a serious blow against the Norfolk State Spartans this past Saturday, falling 96-65.
The Bison are now 11-10 while Coppin State sits at 6-15. Two defensive stats to keep an eye on: Howard has allowed their opponents to shoot 45.90% from the floor on average, which is the 34th highest shooting percentage allowed in college basketball. The Eagles have experienced some struggles of their own as they are stumbling into the matchup with the 363rd most points allowed per game in college basketball, having given up 85.6 on average. It’s possible one of these Achilles’ heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
