This is Wyoming’s first road game of the season after four wins at home to start the season. The Bearkats played one game at home, win, but that was against a sub D-I opponent. Sam Houston State hung around with the Utes despite struggling on the defensive end. They lean heavily on the three and struggle inside the arc. The Cowboys are currently second in the country in defending the perimeter, holding their opponents to 20%. On the other hand, Sam Houston State struggled defending the three and the Cowboys have been shooting it at a top 60 rate so far. Even though Sam Houston State leans more on their defense, the Cowboys defense has been more effective early on in the season.
