What to Know
The Idaho State Bengals will square off against the Utah Utes at 8 p.m. ET on Monday at Jon M. Huntsman Center. After both teams made easy work of their previous opponents, one of them is set up to suffer a discouraging change of fortune.
The Bengals simply couldn’t be stopped on Thursday, as they easily beat the Westcliff Warriors at home 97-56.
Meanwhile, if there were any doubts why Utah was a heavy favorite Friday, the squad quickly laid those doubts to rest. They blew past the Cal State Bakersfield Roadrunners 72-44 on Friday. Utah got double-digit scores from four players: guard Gabe Madsen (25), forward Ben Carlson (13), center Branden Carlson (12), and guard Wilguens Jr. Exacte (10). Carlson had some trouble finding his footing against the LIU Sharks on Monday, so this was a step in the right direction.
The Bengals are now 1-1 while the Utes sit at 2-0. A pair of last-season stats to keep an eye on: Idaho State ranks 21st in college basketball when it comes to steals per game, with 4.5 on average. But Utah enters the game with only 6.2 steals given up per game on average, good for 25th best in college basketball. Ball control might end up being a major factor in this one.
