(NCAAB) Montana vs. Wyoming,
Point Spread: -3.50 | -110.00 Wyoming (Home)
Result: Loss
The Montana Grizzlies have had a tough go of things out of the gate standing 3-6 overall heading into this rematch against Wyoming. Earlier in the year Montana came up short at home against Wyoming losing by a final of 72-73. Montana has had their issues with consistency and finding an identity as this group ranks over 200th in the nation in both scoring and total defense. A lot of people were expecting Wyoming to take a step back this season with Josh Adams moving on, but we felt this group could improve as more guys get involved on the offensive end for the Cowboys. Wyoming has gotten off to a nice start standing 6-2 overall with their best win probably coming against Northern Iowa last week at home by a final of 81-73. Wyoming can put up strong offensive numbers when they're hitting their threes and this group currently ranks 173rd in the nation in scoring and 90th in total defense. Justin James has stepped up to lead the team averaging 15.4 points per game. Wyoming was able to come through against Montana on the road earlier in the year and we like for Wyoming to do the same today as they go on to win and cover this spread against the Grizzlies utilizing their home court advantage this go around.
