What to Know

After two games on the road, Wright State is heading back home. They and the Youngstown State Penguins will face off in a Horizon League battle at 9:00 p.m. ET on Thursday at Ervin J. Nutter Center. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, the two teams will really light up the scoreboard.

Winning is just a little bit easier when you work as a team to rack up 14 more assists than your opponent, a fact Wright State proved on Sunday. They walked away with an 83-76 victory over the Jaguars.

Meanwhile, Youngstown State stacked an eighth blowout win onto their ever-increasing hoard on Sunday. They took their contest at home with ease, bagging a 82-52 victory over the Norse. Winning may never get old, but Youngstown State sure is getting used to it with their third in a row.

The Raiders are on a roll lately: they've won six of their last eight matchups, which provided a massive bump to their 12-10 record this season. As for the Penguins, their victory was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 16-6.

Some high-performance offense is likely on the agenda as both teams are some of the highest scoring teams in the league. Wright State hasn't had any problem running up the score this season, having averaged 86.1 points per game (they're ranked fifth in scoring overall). However, it's not like Youngstown State struggles in that department as they've been averaging 81.7 points per game. With both teams so easily able to put up points, the only question left is who can run the score up higher.

Looking forward, Wright State is expected to win a tight contest, barring any buzzer beaters. This contest will be their fifth straight as the favorites (so far over this stretch they are 2-2 against the spread).
