Just looking at the stats alone, EWU looks to be a much better team. They average about 10 more points, and 6 more rebounds. I think we will see EWU crash the offensive boards hard and take advantage on their second chance opportunities. Sacramento State is 1-4 in league so far, having lost to Montana State and Montana whom Eastern beat. They have also lost by 10 to Northern Arizona who just beat EWU. Their only win comes agaisnt Southern Utah, one of the worst teams in college basketball.
Individual Stats/Matchups:
Sacramento State is lead by their backcourt duo with McKinney and Garrity. They lead their team in scoring and assists. Mckinney averages 14 points and 3.5 assists, while Garrity averages 12 and 3. Both smaller guards at 6-1 and 6-2, i see Drew Brandon giving them troubles defensively with his length. The eagles have to be aware of where Garrity is at all times because he is shooting a career best 44% from deep this season, although he is coming of and 0-5 performance in their overtime loss against Portland State. The Hornets matchup well against our guards, but we have them outgunned at the post positions. They dont have anyone over 6-6 playing significant minutes. If the eagles can get the ball down low to Seiferth and Jois, and not settle for the 3, they will win this game easily.
Predictions:
Eastern 78- Sacramento State 68. I would have them winning by more, but they are coming off a terrible performance against NAU. It is time for EWU to get their first road win!
I think Seiferth will have another break out game against a smaller frontcourt. And Parker Kelly will bounce back and get hot from 3! Let me know what you all think. GO EAGLES! :clap:
