Rest assured, UCSB has this return date vs. Davis circled. The last game the Gauchos lost came four weeks ago at the Thunderdome vs. these same Aggies. Since then, it's been a straight ascent for Joe Pasternack's troops, with seven wins on the trot. UCSB has buckled down on defense, allowing a tick above 65 ppg during the win streak, while former St. Mary's/UConn Aidan Mahaney and ex-Baylor/Utah Miro Little have emerged as one of the best backcourt tandems in the Big West. Meanwhile, Jim Les and his UCD will be hard-pressed to match one of their best efforts in the first meeting, when six scored in double-digits and the Aggies shot 52% from the floor in a mild 93-86 upset. Play UCSB.
