Previewing the Matchup: UNI
  • Evansville and UNI are meeting for the 61st time in series history with the Panthers owning a 41-19 advantage in the all-time series.
  • Northern Iowa captured the last meeting between the two sides on Feb. 8 in Cedar Falls, Iowa, 78-58.
  • UNI enters Saturday's contest on a three-game win streak, including a come-from-behind win over Indiana State on Thursday.
  • There is still plenty to be decided in terms of seeding for Hoops in the Heartland. A win for Evansville would lock the Aces in to the No. 9 seed, its best seed since the 2016-17 season. For the Panthers, there is no surprise with seeding as UNI is locked in to the No. 3 seed.
  • The Valley indeed runs deep this season as four MVC teams sit inside the top 100 in NET rankings, including UNI who is 54, marking the fifth-straight opponent for Evansville who is inside the top 112 in NCAA NET rankings.
