What to Know

The Cal Poly Mustangs have quite the challenge ahead of them as they're expected to be blown off the court 1. They will head out on the road to face off against the San Francisco Dons at 10 p.m. ET Thursday at War Memorial Gymnasium. These two teams come into the matchup bolstered by wins in their previous games.

The Mustangs took their contest at home on Monday with ease, bagging a 94-59 victory over the Bethesda Flames.

Meanwhile, San Francisco had enough points to win and then some against the Texas Southern Tigers on Monday, taking their game 90-77.

The wins brought both teams up to an identical 1-0. A pair of last-season stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Cal Poly have been holding their opponents to a field goal percentage of 26.90%, which places them 17th in college basketball. But San Francisco enters the matchup with a 45.70% field goal percentage, good for 12th best in college basketball. We'll see which of these strengths -- offense or defense -- will win out.
