What to Know

UC Riverside will be in front of their home fans on Saturday, but a look at the spread shows they might need that home-court advantage. The UC Riverside Highlanders and the UCSB Gauchos will face off in a Big West battle at 8:00 p.m. ET at Student Recreation Center. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they’ll have plenty of motivation to get the ‘W’.

Last Thursday, the Highlanders couldn’t handle the Anteaters and fell 73-66. UC Riverside has struggled against UC Irvine recently, as their match on Thursday was their seventh consecutive lost matchup.

Meanwhile, UCSB unfortunately witnessed the end of their three-game winning streak on Thursday. They took a 76-62 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Aggies. UCSB didn’t live up to their potential and found themselves falling short of the advantage oddsmakers thought they had coming into the game.

UCSB struggled to get the ball back on offense and finished the game with only two offensive rebounds. That’s the fewest offensive rebounds they’ve managed all season.

The Highlanders bumped their record down to 5-8 with that defeat, which was their seventh straight on the road. That poor showing could be blamed on the team’s lackluster offensive performance across that stretch, as they only averaged 59.7 points per game. As for the Gauchos, their defeat dropped their record down to 7-4.

This contest is one where the number of possessions is likely to be a big factor: UC Riverside have been smashing the glass this season, having averaged 37.1 rebounds per game. However, it’s not like UCSB struggles in that department as they’ve been averaging 39.4 rebounds per game. Given these competing strengths, it’ll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.
