Match Details
- Date: 2025-11-13
- Time: 1:30 AM UTC
- Location: Chace Athletic Center, Smithfield, RI
Game Overview
Bryant Bulldogs host Dartmouth Big Green in an early non-conference NCAA basketball matchup. Both teams are winless early in the season and looking for their first victories. Bryant is 0-2 after losing largely for scoring struggles while Dartmouth is 0-1 following a loss to Marist.
Key Factors to Consider
- Bryant Bulldogs have lost their first two games with poor offensive output (lost 74-45 at Georgia Tech and 82-66 at Siena). Dartmouth is 0-1, losing 75-56 to Marist, but they have a key scorer, K. Thomas, averaging 20 PPG with good shooting percentages, which could be an offensive weapon. Bryantβs defense has allowed 78 PPG, while Dartmouth's defensive metrics are less clear but have also struggled in their opener.
- There is limited recent head-to-head data between Bryant and Dartmouth in the current season context, making direct historical comparison less informative. Both teams have had minimal success currently, suggesting an evenly matched game.
- No specific injury reports are available for either team ahead of the game.
- The game is played at Bryant's home venue, the Chace Athletic Center, which might grant Bryant a minor home-court advantage. Both teams are early in their season, with limited rhythm established.
- Both teams are highly motivated to secure their first win of the season, which could result in an intense contest despite recent poor form.
