Wyoming vs Denver Prediction
I’m going to take a stab on Denver here. Sure, the Pioneers have played two games so far and they’ve lost both. That said, Denver has also been competitive in both outings. In the opener versus Wisconsin, the Pioneers shot a decent 44 percent from the field with 86 percent (18-of-21) from the line and had a mild deficit 36-32 on the boards. Denver hurt themselves with 16 turnovers though, and gave up 46 percent shooting to the Badgers. Game two was closer, a 64-60 road loss to UC Riverside. Denver shot 41 percent from the field with a 45-37 rebounding deficit in that one but again got into turnover trouble with 16 miscues. If the Pioneers can get a handle on the ball control Saturday I think they’ll be okay—relatively speaking.
As for Wyoming, they’re coming off a 76-63 loss versus a pretty good North Carolina squad. The Cowboys shot a pretty meager 36 percent from the field in that one and only got to the line twice while giving up 50 percent shooting on defense. Wyoming did a nice job on the boards however, posting a 43-37 advantage there. The Cowboys have scored pretty well in their wins so far (a combined 188 points) so Denver may have to kick the pace up a bit to stay in range. Provided the Pioneers are smart with the ball though, I think they can muster up a cover in this one.
