Northern Arizona @ Weber State
Current Records: Northern Arizona 3-4; Weber State 6-0
What to Know
The Northern Arizona Lumberjacks have enjoyed the comforts of home their last two games, but now they must head out on the road. Northern Arizona and the Weber State Wildcats will face off in a Big Sky battle at 9 p.m. ET on Thursday at Dee Events Center. The Lumberjacks have some work to do to even out the 1-10 series between these two since January of 2016, but a win here would be a good start.
It looks like Northern Arizona got the smaller half of the wishbone at Thanksgiving dinner. They took a 73-56 bruising from the Cal State Fullerton Titans last week.
Meanwhile, Weber State didn’t have too much trouble with the Dixie St. Trailblazers on the road on Saturday as they won 87-70.
Northern Arizona 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 Northern Arizona against the spread since they’ve let down bettors for the past three consecutive games.
Weber State’s win lifted them to 6-0 while Northern Arizona’s loss dropped them down to 3-4. We’ll see if the Wildcats can repeat their recent success or if the Lumberjacks bounce back and reverse their fortune.
