Current Records: Wyoming 2-0; Washington 2-1
What to Know
The Washington Huskies will stay at home another game and welcome the Wyoming Cowboys at 11 p.m. ET Nov. 18 at Alaska Airlines Arena. These two teams seek to continue their momentum from their previous wins.
Washington netted a 72-65 victory over the Texas Southern Tigers on Monday. Washington’s guard Terrell Brown Jr. was one of the most active players for the team, picking up 20 points and nine assists.
Meanwhile, the Cowboys simply couldn’t be stopped on Sunday, as they easily beat the Arkansas-Pine Bluff Golden Lions at home 85-45. Wyoming’s success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Graham Ike led the charge as he had 21 points in addition to eight boards.
The Huskies are the favorite in this one, with an expected 3.5-point margin of victory. But bettors beware: they are 0-3 against the spread when favored.
The wins brought Washington up to 2-1 and Wyoming to 2-0. A pair of last-season stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Washington has only been able to knock down 33.90% percent of their shots, which is the 355th lowest field goal percentage in college basketball. The Cowboys experienced some struggles of their own as they have been holding their opponents to a field goal percentage of 30.40%, which places them third in college basketball. Maybe that strength will give Wyoming the oomph they need to beat the odds.
