Game Preview
Game Preview
Montana hosts the Merrimack Warriors after Josh Bannan scored 23 points in Montana’s 78-59 victory against the Saint Thomas Tommies. Montana went 14-3 at home a season ago while going 18-14 overall.
Montana will be strutting in after a victory while the Warriors will be stumbling in from a defeat and both teams will be coming in on very low rest after finishing up games on Thursday.
The Grizzlies averaged 72.2 points per game while shooting 45.3% from the field and 34.9% from 3-point distance last season. Merrimack went 14-16 overall with a 7-9 record on the road last season. The Warriors averaged 61.4 points per game while shooting 42.1% from the field and 33.1% from 3-point range last season. Montana put together a 13-16-0 record against the spread last season. Merrimack covered 14 times in 29 matchups with a spread last year.
The Grizzlies had an average implied point total of 71.9 last season, which is 1.9 points higher than their implied total in Friday’s game (70). Last season, Montana put up more than 70 points in 15 games. The average implied point total last season for the Warriors (66.7) is 4.7 more points than the team’s implied total in this matchup (62).
Merrimack and the Grizzlies now sit at an identical 1-2. Two stats to keep an eye on: The Warriors have only been able to knock down 38.70% percent of their shots, which is the 15th lowest field goal percentage in college basketball.
Montana has experienced some struggles of their own as they have allowed their opponents to shoot 54.70% from the floor on average, which is the 362nd highest shooting percentage allowed in college basketball. It’s possible one of these Achilles’ heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
The Grizzlies are big favorites against the Warriors on Friday and will be expected to win and get their second win of the season on the board.
