Idaho Vandals

Idaho's basketball team has struggled offensively, scoring an average of 68.7 points per game, but in their last two games they scored even less, with only 48 and 57 points respectively. They recently suffered an 80-57 blowout loss to Montana, where they had poor shooting percentages and struggled on both ends of the floor. Despite having a decent defensive record for the season, allowing an average of 70.8 points per game, they have failed to cover the spread in three of their last four games.

Portland St. Vikings Analysis

In their recent game against Sacramento State, Portland State suffered a 73-61 loss on the road, struggling on both ends of the floor with poor shooting percentages and allowing the Hornets to shoot well. KJ Allen was the leading scorer with 10 points. The Vikings have not covered the spread in their last three games and have a season average of 72 points per game while giving up 71.8 points on average.

Vandals Expected to Shine at Home Against Struggling Portland State

Both Portland State and Idaho's recent regular season performances have been lacking, with Portland State losing three consecutive games and Idaho losing three out of their last four, including their last two matches. Despite this, the Vandals managed to defeat the Vikings on an away game earlier in the season and have displayed a strong performance in their last two home games. Having been on the road for their last three matches, Idaho is expected to perform better in shooting on their home court. On the other hand, Portland State has struggled to score, not exceeding 58 points in their last two games. With this in mind, it is likely that the Vandals will have a strong performance at home, potentially breaking their three-game losing streak and securing a win.
