Arizona State-California

Press Notes

ASU leads the Cal
series 31-29 as the home team has won 21 of the past 29 games, but the Golden
Bears won in Tempe on Jan. 19 88-58 in a game that was
somewhat closer than the final score would indicate. ASU
ranks first in the league in three-point percentage, hitting 122-of-311 (.392),

Washington State-Oregon

Press Notes

Oregon
is 11-14 overall, 5-8 in the Pacific-10. Oregon
leads the Pac-10 in 3-point field goals made (6.60 per game). In the series the
Ducks have won last nine meetings and 17 of the last 18. Oregon
has won 10 straight over WSU in Eugene. 

Connecticut-Seton Hall

Press Notes

The Huskies were 11-0 before losing Jan. 3 at Marquette
in their Big East opener. They won 11 straight again before the Villanova loss.
The Huskies have little time to dwell on the loss. The Villanova game was the
second in a three-game Big East road trip. It began at Seton Hall and ends
Saturday at No. 11 West Virginia, now tied with Villanova atop the 16-team conference.The league historically has tried to avoid
scheduling teams for three straight road games but with more teams this season,
it’s more frequent.

Toledo-Detroit

Press Notes

The Rockets will be looking to match their season-best win
streak of four games with a win over the Titans. UT will have a formidable
challenge on its hands to do that as Detroit
has posted a 10-1 win-loss mark on its homecourt this season. Toledo
is coming off a perfect three-game homestand during
which it posted wins over Central Michigan (78-62), Kent
State
(60-44) and Bowling Green (72-64). During this
stretch, the Rockets registered a 53.1 FG% and
limited their opponents to a 41.2 shooting mark.

New Mexico State-Pacific

Press Notes

Pacific is 18-6 overall, 8-2 in the Big West Conference. New
Mexico
State
,
former member of the Big West Conference, is 10-12 overall, 6-5 in the Western
Athletic Conference. The Aggies hold a 27-8 edge in
the all-time series, although the Tigers have a 9-6 series edge in Stockton.
