[ADAM HILL Las Vegas review-journal, 30-22-2 (overall record)]
Today’s best bet: UC Santa Barbara (-4) over Northwestern State
The Gauchos return nearly everyone from a team that finished near the top of the Big West last season and find themselves in the lofty postion of preseason favorites. Northwestern State has much more to replace, and its hectic style will not catch UCSB’s veteran team off guard in this neutral-site game in Palo Alto, Calif.
