What to Know

The Saint Mary's Gaels will be home for the holidays to greet the Missouri State Bears at 10 p.m. ET on Wednesday at University Credit Union Pavilion. Saint Mary's is out to keep their seven-game home win streak alive.

The Gaels came up short against the San Diego State Aztecs last Friday, falling 63-53. The top scorers for Saint Mary's were guard Tommy Kuhse (13 points) and forward Matthias Tass (12 points).

Meanwhile, MSU took their contest at home on Saturday with ease, bagging a 106-70 win over the Cent. Arkansas Bears.

Saint Mary's is the favorite in this one, with an expected 6.5-point margin of victory. Those burned by picking them against the spread last week might want to keep in mind that the squad has not yet dropped back-to-back games against the spread this season.

Missouri State's victory lifted them to 8-4 while Saint Mary's' defeat dropped them down to 10-3. We'll see if MSU can repeat their recent success or if the Gaels bounce back and reverse their fortune.
