PACIFIC. WHY, WELL THESE TWO ARE BOTH GOOD DEFENSIVE TEAMS AT #2 and #3 in the Conf. This should be a low scoring affair. But here is where I see an advantage lying with Pacific. While they are shooting in the 73% from the line, Santa Barbara is really bad from the line shooting a low 60% from the line. In fact, they are currently last in the Conf in Ft%. A defensive battle which could go down to the wire, you have to feel that FT will be the difference if this happens. Now with Pacific getting +4.5 and shooting better from the line, and also having already beaten this team by 20pts already, and I say the advantage is with Pacific. Plus, check the inj reports , because Ucsb is going to be without their big man, cant recall his name, but it will be a substantial loss in the paint without him playing . Another advantage for Pacific, jmo, gl and Aloha CC.
