Tech will look to continue its hot play Saturday night when they travel to Miami to take on FIU.

Tip is set for 6PM with the game being broadcast on CUSA.TV

FIU defeated Southern Miss last night 76-70. Brian Beard Jr. scored 23 points in the win.

On the season, FIU is 10-13 overall with a 4-6 record in league play.

Beard leads FIU in scoring averaging 16 points per game. Trejon Jacob is averaging 15 points per game, shooting 37% from 3. Eric Lockett is averaging 14 points per contest.

FIU is another team that struggles to shoot the ball from 3, only shooting 33% on the season. As a team, they shoot only 58% from the free throw line!!

They are a guard dependent team, the three guys mentioned above are all guards.

They lost by 5 to MTSU in OT on their home floor, this will not be a pushover by any means for the Bulldogs.

If you didn't get a chance to watch Thursday night, the announcers said that Bracey's back tightened up pregame which is why he did not play. I would imagine Tech will hold him out again Saturday night. Joniah White did not make the trip.
