Saturday's contest is shaping up to be a scrappy matchup: N. Alabama have been smashing the glass this season, having averaged 38 rebounds per game. It's a different story for Tennessee Tech, though, as they've been averaging only 32.2 rebounds per game. Given N. Alabama's sizeable advantage in that area, Tennessee Tech will need to find a way to close that gap.

N. Alabama strolled past Tennessee Tech in their previous matchup back in November by a score of 86-71. The rematch might be a little tougher for N. Alabama since the team won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
