MOSCOW, Idaho –
The men are back home this weekend as Idaho gets set for a rematch with Northern Colorado at 7 p.m. on Thursday in the Cowan Spectrum.
 
FOLLOW:  Fans can catch all the action all season long by following live stats at GoVandals.com/MBBStats.  Live streams for every game will be available at GoVandals.com/WatchMBB.  All home and conference games will be streamed live on the Pluto TV app, as well as online at WatchBigSky.com.  As always, fans can follow the Vandals all season long on Twitter, @VandalHoops.
 
Chris King will bring you the action all season long on the Vandal Radio Network, starting approximately 30 minutes before tipoff every night.
 
LAST TIME OUT: The Vandals have won three straight since last playing in Moscow, including a weekend sweep at Southern Utah and Northern Arizona last weekend.  Last time out, Idaho took down the Lumberjacks of NAU, 84-80.
 
NAU led big early, knocking down a handful of contested 3-pointers in the first half to build a lead.  Idaho would bounce back, as has been customary this conference season, behind some tremendous defensive intensity and hot shooting in the second half.  Brayon Blake was special yet again, finishing with team-highs of 25 points and nine boards.
 
PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Brayon Blake earned Big Sky Conference Player of the Week honors after averaging 24 points and 10.5 rebounds per game over the weekend.
 
THREE GAME ROAD STRETCH: Idaho is forced to take a three-game road stretch in conference play every season, with one game coming at Eastern Washington.  In the four seasons since Idaho rejoined the Big Sky, this was the first time that the Vandals were able to pick up the three-game sweep.
 
In fact, Idaho had not won three consecutive conference road games in the same season since 2010-11.
