Northern Colorado at North Dakota

Northern Colorado is a big dog but playing well on offense, off an 89-71 win at Southern Utah as a dog. Three of the team's four conference wins have come on the road. Northern Colorado has had at least three-players reach double figures in the last four games and at least one player reach 20-points in two of the four games. The Bears also have the third-best scoring defense in the conference, as well as the second-best three-point field goal defense, keeping teams to just 34.5% shooting from beyond the arc. Just one point separated both teams when they squared off last season: UNC held on for a 71-70 win in Greeley, while North Dakota outlasted the Bears 74-73 in Grand Forks, so grab the big dog in this conference rivalry tilt.
