Late-night hoops are on the schedule Wednesday, with this tipoff scheduled for 10:00 p.m. EDT. It'll pit the Utah State Aggies (9-1; 5-3-0 ATS) against the Santa Clara Broncos (7-3; 3-6-0 ATS). These schools crossed paths last season, with the Aggies winning by 22 at home. Will the shift to Leavey Center favor Santa Clara, or are the Aggies simply too much for them?

Excluding an overtime loss against Bradley in early November, Utah State's season has been perfect so far. Their latest win came by 31 points, thanks to four starters reaching double digits. That's how it tends to go for this team averaging 83.9 points per game. They're nothing special at the charity stripe (68.7%) or beyond the arc (33.3%), but manage a 53.2% field goal percentage overall. The Aggies play at a slow pace but pull down 10.6 offensive boards per game. Things are going great right now, and they'll aim for a ninth straight win in California on Wednesday through a strong offense.
The defense is just as solid, only giving up 65.4 points on an average night. Their dominance begins by holding teams to 27.9% on threes. Overall, their foes only knock down 41.0% of their shots. A +9.0 rebounding margin per game helps clean up possessions after getting those misses. Even without elite turnover-forcing abilities, the Aggies keep their opposition in check.
