Who's Playing
Santa Clara @ Utah State
Current Records: Santa Clara 2-0; Utah State 2-0
What to Know
The Utah State Aggies will take on the Santa Clara Broncos at 9 p.m. ET Monday at home.
The Aggies took their game against the Bradley Braves this past Friday by a conclusive 84-62 score. Utah State got double-digit scores from four players: Steven Ashworth (28), Zee Hamoda (15), Taylor Funk (13), and Dan Akin (10).
Meanwhile, while not quite a landslide, the matchup between Santa Clara and the Georgia Southern Eagles this past Thursday was still a pretty decisive one as Santa Clara wrapped it up with a 78-62 win at home.
Utah State is the favorite in this one, with an expected 7.5-point margin of victory. They have been consistent moneymakers against the spread when favored (2-0), so they might be worth a quick bet.
Their wins lifted both teams to an identical 2-0. Steven Ashworth will be someone to keep an eye on after he shot 5-for-9 from beyond the arc and finished with 28 points and six dimes this past Friday. Let's see if he can build on that strong performance or if Santa Clara's defense can bottle him up.
