Who's Playing

New Orleans @ Utah State

Current Records: New Orleans 3-6; Utah State 6-3

What to Know

The New Orleans Privateers are on the road again this past Saturday and play against the Utah State Aggies at 9 p.m. ET Dec. 11 at Dee Glen Smith Spectrum. The Privateers will be seeking to avenge the 76-66 loss they suffered the last time these two teams played Dec. 19 of 2016.

New Orleans ended up a good deal behind the Louisiana Ragin Cajuns when they played two weeks ago, losing 80-67.

Meanwhile, the game between Utah State and the Brigham Young Cougars this past Wednesday was not a total blowout, but with Utah State falling 82-71 on the road, it was darn close to turning into one. Utah State's defeat came about despite a quality game from forward Justin Bean, who had 20 points in addition to seven rebounds.

New Orleans is the clear underdog, so they're hoping it's the size of the fight that determines this one. Now might not be the best time to take New Orleans against the spread since they've let down bettors for the past two consecutive games.

With the two teams each stumbling in off of a loss, both will be hungry for the win. Check back to see which squad is able to work their way into the win column.
