Hard to tell how good the Spartans are as two of their wins have come against non-NCAA Div. 1 foes and their two wins over such foes wee vs. James Madison and Hampton whose combined records is 6-6. They did lose badly to Grand Canyon, 73-91, but played Stanford close, 63-70. They have eight players who are averaging over 20 minutes a game, so either they have a lot of depth or their coach is still setting his starting line-up. They seem to be led by guards: Brian Moore Jr., (22.7 ppg, 2.8 apg) and Christian Ings (4.0 ppg, 3.8 apg). They have two significant big men: 6’8” Jalen Meyers (4.8 rpg) and 6’11” Kuleul Mading (3.8 rpg); however, their leading rebounder is Jaylani Darden, a 6’5” guard.
They'll be tough and I think it will be a challenging game for the Aggies. We've seen some improvement with the Ags recently and I hope that continues.
