UCSB vs.UofP questions?

[Dax22]

Is it just me or is there something I don't know about? Why is Pacific getting 3 points over UCSB. I think UCSB is the better team and they have all fiver starters back from last year. Pacific is coming off their first win at home vs. Cal-poly but, it isn't like they are kiling people.

Any info would be great if there isn't any injuries or such I'm going to lay on UCSB.
