What to Know

The Santa Clara Broncos have the luxury of staying home another game and will welcome the San Jose State Spartans at 5 p.m. ET Dec. 10 at Leavey Center. These two teams seek to continue their momentum from their previous wins.

Santa Clara escaped with a win on Wednesday against the New Mexico St. Aggies by the margin of a single free throw, 66-65. Santa Clara's guard Brandin Podziemski was one of the most active players for the squad, picking up 16 points and six assists along with seven boards.

Meanwhile, SJSU picked up a 58-48 win over the Cal State Bakersfield Roadrunners on Tuesday.

The Broncos are the favorite in this one, with an expected 9-point margin of victory. They have failed bettors playing the spread in their past three games, so buyers beware.

Santa Clara took their matchup against SJSU when the two teams previously met in December of last year by a conclusive 79-57 score. Will Santa Clara repeat their success, or do the Spartans have a better game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
