Charleston Cougars Analysis

The Charleston Cougars, two-time defending CAA champs, are starting the season strong with an uptempo style that has led them to victory against Wofford by 10 points. Led by senior Ante Brzovic, one of the sport's top scorers at 19.5 points per game, the team is shooting well from the floor, beyond the arc, and at the free throw line. While their offense is impressive, their fast-paced game results in allowing an average of 76.4 points per game. However, their defense forces turnovers and holds opponents to low shooting percentages. As they prepare to face the Beavers, the Cougars will need to maintain their offensive efficiency while tightening up their defense to secure another win.

Oregon State Poised to Easily Beat the Spread against Charleston.

Oregon State's success in beating the spread in every game this season is commendable. Heading into a neutral environment closer to their home, the Beavers are currently ranked 66 spots higher in KenPom's ratings. With their strong offensive capabilities, Oregon State should have no trouble scoring over 75 points against the Cougars, particularly if Charleston gives them opportunities at the free throw line. Additionally, the Beavers' defense is anticipated to dominate the boards, create turnovers, and stifle Charleston's scoring chances. Given these factors, it is advisable to support the Beavers in surpassing the spread in this upcoming game.
