Its Weber State basketball Eve!! First off is the Aggies of USU. We are due to beat them. After their loss to a D2 team and Collette leaving, it makes you wonder about the state of this team. Even without Collette, they still have good players who can hurt us. So lets look at the matchups.
1. Senglin vs. Perkins. Advantage WEBER STATE. Perkins is a solid player, but Jeremy is better.
2. Richardson vs. Pearre. Advantage EVEN. They are both Sophmores and their stats are very close.
3. Baker vs. Smith. Advantage UTAH STATE. I'm only basing this on the fact Smith has played D1 and was very solid and Dusty has never played. This will be a good match up to watch. I like Gittens here as well to guard Smith.
4. Moore vs. Bolomboy. Advantage EVEN. Not sure if they will ever guard each other. Moore is very very good. Two totally different styles of play. I will say this though without Collette, I think Weber State has a huge advantage in the post now. Weber State should dominate the rebounding.
5. Braxton vs. Jones. I have no idea, but I remember watching Jones last year and thought he was slow and fat and not good. Braxton has never played a D1 game, but just looking at them you would have to give the edge to Braxton. Will be interesting to see this match up as well.
Bench. Cannon, Gittens, Hill. Vs. Who the hell knows? The fact that Gittens and HIll were starters last year and Cannon looks very solid, its got to be huge advantage WEBER STATE.
So I'm factoring the loss to a D2 game for the Aggies, loss of Collette at a very strange time, Weber is much better than last year, and Weber is pissed about the game last year. I'm going to make my best un biased prediction at WEBER STATE 74 USU 66. The difference is USU will have no answer for Bolomboy in the post. I think he has a huge game. Go WEBER!!!!!!
