Cal State Northridge Matadors vs Santa Clara Broncos
The Matadors go into this one with a 30% winning record, and naturally as underdogs against the Santa Clara Broncos. Northridge will be sure to keep an eye on the current Santa Clara streak (Lost 1), and take necessary precautions. The Matadors are averaging 69.9 ppg this season (good for number 174 in the NCAA), but not as good as the Broncos’s 73.2 ppg average in the 2010-2011 NCAA season.
Playing on the road, the Broncos will need to play to their strengths and their 224 freethrows made is their strongest statistical attribute (and good for number 6 in the whole NCAA Division 1). The Santa Clara are 6-6 this season overall (0-0 in the West Coast Conference) and today will hope to improve their 1 – 4 record away from Leavey Center.
Northridge have been dominating their opponents this season in the total offensive rebounds departement. Their 134 total offensive rebounds is the number 101 best among the 350 colleges in the NCAA D1, and that will be an area that the Santa Clara coaching staff will want to balance out today if they want to dampen Northridge’s 2 – 0 home record. After 10 games, the Matadors hopeful will be counting for a victory to improve their standing in the Big West Conference.The 1,600 expected fans in the Matadome will be in for a treat today and if you want to join them and watch Cal State Northridge Matadors vs Santa Clara Broncos online live streaming on ESPN3 or on your TV – then make sure to tune in at 22:00 ET today.
