What to Know

We've got another exciting Big Sky matchup on schedule as the Portland State Vikings and the Idaho State Bengals are set to tip at 5:00 p.m. ET on Saturday at The Viking Pavilion. The Vikings will be looking to keep their five-game home win streak alive.

Last Thursday, Portland State didn't have too much trouble with Weber State as they won 74-56.

Meanwhile, the point spread may have favored Idaho State last Thursday, but the final result did not. They fell to Sacramento State 75-71.

Even though they lost, Idaho State smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 17 offensive rebounds. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least 11 offensive rebounds in six consecutive games.

Portland State is on a roll lately: they've won eight of their last ten matches, which provided a nice bump to their 12-7 record this season. As for Idaho State, they now have a losing record at 8-9.

Rebounding is likely to be a big factor in this contest: Portland State has been smashing the glass this season, having averaged 37.7 rebounds per game. However, it's not like Idaho State struggles in that department as they've been averaging 40.1. With both teams battling to corral missed shots, we'll see if one team can grab an edge.

Looking forward, Portland State is the favorite in this one, as the experts expect to see them win by one point. They might be worth a quick bet since they've covered the spread the last five times they've played.
