- Analysis
- Portland State is 14-6, including 8-2 at home, while Idaho State is 10-12 overall, including only 3-8 on the road. I think the Vikings, though, who are off eight wins out of their last nine games, will have their hands full here with the revenge-minded Bengals, who fell 93-87 as 3.5-point favorites in OT at home in early January. The Bengals are, in my opinion, clearly the more desperate team in this fight as they look to avoid a fifth straight loss. Last time out, they fell 81-79 at Weber State as 2.5-point dogs. The Bengals are getting twice as many points here now in the rematch on the road, and I believe the more motivated and revenge-minded visitors will indeed be able to, at the very least, duplicate their competitive effort. So, when you add up all these situational and motivational factors, Idaho State becomes the correct call in this rematch in my opinion ***BIG SKY GAME OF THE MONTH
