The Redbirds finish up the two game homestand as the Flames trek down I-55 to CEFCU Arena.
UIC is eleventh place in conference at 1-11 (9-14 overall) whereas ISU is tied for ninth place in conference at 4-8 (9-14 overall).
Chicago Circle are led in scoring by Jace Carter (16.1), rebounding by Toby Okani (7.1) and assists by Tre Anderson (3.5); Okani (12.2) and Anderson (11.8) also average double-digits. The 'birds are led in scoring by Seneca Knight (11.5), rebounding by Kendall Lewis (7.0) and assists by Darius Burford (2.2); Burford (11.4) and Lewis (10.4) also average in double-digits. Both teams generally go eleven deep on any given night.
According to NET Ranking, Illinois-Chicago (281) toughest opponent was Northwestern (40, loss), their best win was against Illinois State (252) and their worst loss was to Valparaiso (288); Illinois State (252) toughest opponent was Bradley (77, loss), their best win was against Southern Illinois (108) and their worst loss was to Valparaiso (288).
At this point in the season, there are more common opponents than not (although no common non-conference opposition); as far as weaknesses, the Redbirds are in assists, blocked shots, steals and turnovers.
UIC won the first match-up at Credit Union 1 Arena, 55-51, and have not won a game since.
Redbirds 72, Flames 64
